Will Luna Classic recover? Have we reached the bottom of the Crypto market?
June 18 continues to be the low of the year for BTC and ETH.
- Both BTC and Ethereum have remained above that low reached on June 18, but are increasingly at risk of falling lower.
- Altcoins like Cardano and Solana are 10-15% lower than their annual lows and increasingly at risk of falling lower
- With Putin’s escalation in Ukraine, things could go both ways.
Impact of the Arrest Warrant Do Kwon:
There are two schools of thought
- One, the Community has taken over most of Luna Classic and will not need TFL in the future. Some help was given during Burn’s fiscal integration, but some Terra Rebels believe it will no longer be needed.
- Two, the second school of thought states that Luna Classic will need Do Kwon and TFL if they are to succeed.
We are currently relying on the Community’s ability to take control of the LUNC.
Will Luna Classic recover? $LUNC vs $LUNA vs BTC and ETH
$LUNC price has outperformed other cryptocurrencies by a wide margin over the past 4 months. Most investors are optimistic about lunc price performance in the rest of September due to the On-Chain burn tax that was launched on Wednesday.
