its starting price in exchanges like Binance

What is the Luna 2.0 price starting price?

LUNA 2.0 is rumored to cost $50 upon launch, according to social media reports. Some reports believe it could cost anywhere between $30 and $60. It has not been confirmed yet on Terraform Labs’ online channels what the launch price of LUNA 2.0 will be. Until the team sends out an official confirmation, no one is able to guarantee the price of LUNA 2.0.

LUNA 2.0’s price will be determined by the decision to mint 1 billion new LUNA tokens. Luna Classic (LUNC) currently has a circulating supply of 6.5 trillion, which has accelerated since it crashed to $0. A smaller supply than that is by far and considerably lower.

Is Luna 2.0 a good investment?

Several people have suffered because of Terra’s collapse and there is a possibility that most of them won’t be able to purchase the coin again.

It is too early to determine whether Do Kwon, Terra’s co-founder, was responsible for the collapse of this company even though South Korean prosecutors are making a case against him. Therefore, Terra 2.0 will likely close the gaps that existed in Terra 1.0. Given Terra’s strong brand recognition, we can’t rule out a price bounce in the near future.

When is Luna 2.0 airdrop?

Terra chain’s first block will host the LUNA airdrop. Moreover, Terra validators will be staked with LUNA in order to ensure network security. LUNA, however, will not be available to users for at least 6 months following the unlock at Genesis. Upon staked vesting at Terra Station, the tokens will be visible.

Users can earn rewards by staking on Terra Station with liquid or non-vesting LUNA. Users can also be part of Terra Station’s governance.

Is Luna 2.0 on Coinbase?

Despite all the crypto exchanges offering support to Luna 2.0 airdrop, Binance being the most notable one, Coinbase’s silence is becoming increasingly noticeable.

Coinbase announced that it would suspend trading in Terra LUNA and WLUNA, an Ethereum token representing LUNA, on Friday, May 27, 2022, approximately at 12 a.m. ET. Coinbase, Coinbase Pro, and Coinbase Exchange will be affected by this decision to be implemented today. The infrastructure arm of Coinbase, Coinbase Cloud, has suspended support for Terra and all future Terra chains.

In spite of other exchanges revealing they will welcome the Luna 2.0 token, the US company has been quiet, and no plans to list Luna 2.0 appear in the works.

Where to buy Luna 2.0?

According to Terra, a majority of crypto exchanges that previously supported Luna 2.0 will begin doing so from May 27.

Existing Terra projects can migrate to the new Terra Luna chain using the new Terra Luna recovery plan. Luna tokens will be airdropped to existing holders in Luna wallets as well as on exchanges as part of this plan.

Binance, Huobi, Crypto.com, and ByBit are among the crypto exchanges that support Terra Luna 2.0. More exchanges continue to announce that Luna 2.0 will be supported as genesis block approaches.

Coinbase remains the biggest exchange staying away from Luna 2.0 airdrop after Kraken, Binance and Huobi pledged support

After most crypto exchanges offered support to Luna 2.0 airdrop, with Binance being the most notable one, Coinbase’s silence around the topic is becoming louder.

In the middle of the Terra LUNA collapse, Coinbase announced that it planned to suspend trading in UST and WLUNA, an Ethereum token representing LUNA, on Friday, May 27, 2022, on or around 12pm ET. This decision, to be implemented today, affect Coinbase, Coinbase Pro, and Coinbase Exchange. Coinbase Cloud, Coinbase’s infrastructure arm, announced on Friday, May 20 the suspension of support for Terra and all future Terra chains.

The US company has been quiet and no plans of listing Luna 2.0 seem to be in the works, despite other exchanges having revealed their plans to welcome the new Luna 2.0 token.

Kraken announces Luna 2.0 airdrop support, joining Binance and other major crypto exchanges

The crypto exchange Kraken has been the latest to announce its support for the new airdrop. The exchange will call the new asset LUNA2, while Terra classic will remain as LUNA. Existing LUNA deposit addresses will continue to work for both assets. Kraken joins other exchanges such as Binance, HitBTC, Huobi and Bitfinex, who previously made similar announcements.

Do Kwon, the co-founder of Terraform Labs, welcomed this announcement by tweeting the news.

More details about the specific steps Kraken is taking and around the airdrop are still being finalized and will be shared soon.

Terra 2.0 launch is accompanied by a big move in Binance Coin

Cryptocurrency analysts at FXStreet have identified a possible big move in Binance Smart Chain’s token BNB. Though Binance Coin is still within the corrective trend channel, analysts have set a bullish target for BNB price recovery. 

Crypto exchanges welcome Terra’s LUNA chain

Terraform Labs’ sister tokens LUNA and UST witnessed the first “crypto bank run ” in history after the algorithmic stablecoin depegged. Co-founder Do Kwon wasted no time in coming up with a revival plan for LUNA, without UST, proposing a new chain. 

While the community has criticized the hard fork, Terraform Labs considers it a “genesis”, birth of a new Terra LUNA chain that does not share history with the previous blockchain. 

Here is the list of crypto exchanges that will support Terra’s LUNA hard fork

Binance recently revealed that they are working “closely” with Terra on the LUNA 2.0 recovery plan. Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the CEO of Binance has previously criticized the collapse of stablecoin UST and the negative impact on the crypto ecosystem. However, keeping in mind the best interests of the community of LUNA and UST holders, the exchange has come forward, and welcomed the LUNA 2.0 chain and token. 

In the last 24 hours, Huobi, Bitfinex, Bitrue, HitBTC and FTX have all announced their intention to welcome Terra’s LUNA 2.0 and support the new version of the blockchain. 

Terra’s LUNA recovery plan continues despite South Korean authorities pressure on Do Kwon

Terraform Labs is moving forward with its Ecosystem Revival Plan 2, which is expected to be completed on Friday, May 27th. Terra’s LUNA 2.0 testnet is already live and once the launch of the new LUNA mainnet is completed, the rebirth of the native token as a genesis chain will be completed. Do Kwon and Terraform Labs reject the event being tagged as a hard fork, as the new blockchain will start with block 0 and abandon LUNA Classic. 30% of the new LUNA tokens will be awarded to both pre- and post-collapse LUNA and UST holders in a fixed manner. The vote for the LUNA recovery plan went through with 65% of positive votes amongst the Terra community despite the anger shown by plenty of investors affected by the Terra debacle two weeks ago. 

Terra’s LUNA 2.0 testnet is now live, the snapshot could happen on May 26 and the mainnet launch is expected to occur as soon as Friday, May 27, thus completing the LUNA fork. Terra’s mainnet launch will be accompanied by an airdrop for eligible LUNA and UST holders. Whistleblowers from the Terra community have gathered legal support and a litigation fund to file a lawsuit against Terraform Labs and its co-founders.

Terra’s LUNA 2.0 is here, testnet is now live

Voting on Do Kwon’s Terra Ecosystem Revival Plan 2 is now complete, with a majority of the community welcoming the rebirth of Terra, giving birth to LUNA 2.0. 65.5% of the votes were in favor of the plan to revive LUNA, and distribute the new token to “pre-attack” and “post-attack” LUNA and UST holders and the developer community. 

Voting on Proposal 1623 Rebirth Terra Network ended

Orbital Command, a validator dedicated to educating the Terra community, announced on Twitter that LUNA 2.0 testnet is now live. The validator announced a mainnet launch is set to occur on May 27, the event that should complete Terra’s LUNA hard fork. 

The LUNA 2.0 native asset is LUNA and community members holding both before and after “the attack” LUNA and UST are eligible for the first airdrop, including 30% of all tokens. The “pre-attack” snapshot is from May 7 and the “post attack” one is scheduled for May 27. 

For better understanding, a user with 1000 UST on May 27 (“post-attack” snapshot) is eligible for 0.013 times 1000, 13 new LUNA tokens. Each category is eligible to receive new LUNA in a fixed manner:

• Pre-attack LUNA – 1 : ~1.1
• Pre-attack aUST – 1 : 0.033
• Post-attack LUNA – 1 : 0.000015
• Post-attack UST – 1 : 0.013

Regardless of the category in which a user falls, 30% of the LUNA 2.0 airdrop will be unlocked at the genesis on May 27 and the rest would be vested linearly over two years with a six-month cliff. This period ensures that token holders with small quantities have similar initial liquidity profiles. The airdropped tokens will be in a bonded state and users will have to wait to un-bond for 21 days before being able to transfer them. In this case, un-bonding is the action of telling the LUNA 2.0 network that you want to unlock your tokens. 

Not a hard fork, but a genesis chain

Do Kwon’s final recovery plan for LUNA drops algorithmic stablecoin UST and proposes the development of a new blockchain, while the LUNA asset name remains the same. This process is being referred to as a hard fork in the Terra community. 

Terraform Labs has shed light on the nomenclature and explained that the rebirth of LUNA as a genesis chain is not a hard fork, though. LUNA 2.0 would not share all of its history with the previous chain, unlike what occurs in a typical hard fork. Therefore, LUNA 2.0’s blockchain starts with block 0 and abandons LUNA classic. 

This means applications that existed on LUNA classic (LUNC) do not pre-exist on the new chain, and they will need to be migrated to LUNA 2.0. 

Several protocols on LUNC have come forward with support for LUNA 2.0. Phoenix Finance, Spectrum protocol, Astroport, Terra Name Service, Falcon wallet are among the key applications that are ready to migrate to LUNA 2.0 and extend their support to Terraform Labs. 

Do Kwon denies approaching Korean exchanges for LUNA 2.0 listing

A South Korean media outlet, Heraldcorp, reported that Do Kwon, the co-founder of Terraform Labs, approached the top five cryptocurrency exchanges of Korea for a LUNA 2.0 listing. 

The financial investigation arm of South Korean police force is currently investigating Terraform Labs and the two sister tokens, LUNA and algorithmic stablecoin UST, following their colossal crash. Authorities reached out to exchanges, asking them to freeze accounts related to Terraform Labs’ collapsed tokens. As a consequence, exchanges have ended their support for LUNA (LUNC). 

Do Kwon addressed the news on his Twitter handle and denied the allegations. Heraldcorp had reported the incident after an industry insider shared details of how contact was made and the contents of the Telegram message sent by Do Kwon’s executive from Terraform Labs. 

Binance CEO CZ drops key details related on LUNA and UST crash on AMA

In an AMA session held on Reddit, users reached out to Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao and asked several questions related to the colossal UST crash and de-peg, and the upcoming LUNA hard fork – or genesis chain as Terraform Labs refers to it. 

Binance’s CZ revealed that the world’s largest exchange had staked Terraform Labs’s algorithmic stablecoin UST in the Anchor protocol. However, it was a part of the exchange’s earn program and it was accompanied by user education and extensive disclaimers. 

Binance was transparent about how staking UST on the Anchor protocol works, and its associated risks. CZ alleviated concerns of UST and LUNA holders on Binance and offered insights on why the exchange paused trading of the assets when network was unstable and the tokens’ blockchain halted through the event of the crash.
