The Terra Classic ecosystem, comprising tokens LUNC and USTC, has witnessed a rollercoaster ride in the cryptocurrency market. Following a significant purchase by Trader QT, an official partner of Luna Classic Labs, both tokens experienced a sharp rise in value, followed by a notable decline within 24 hours.

Over the past 30 days, LUNC has experienced a substantial upswing, with a reported 97.22% increase in value, stirring speculation on whether this surge is a temporary spike or the beginning of a sustainable upward trend​​.

Terra Classic (LUNC) has witnessed an impressive surge of 97.22% over the last 30 days, a significant increase from its October 27 price of $0.0000646, which has prompted investors to set their sights on the $0.10 mark.

TerraClassicUSD (USTC), the algorithmic stablecoin tied to the LUNA ecosystem, recently went on an upward trajectory to register gains of over 300%. In a stunning cascade of events, the token's price spike in the past 24 hours has left investors wondering about the implication for Terra Classic (LUNC) and the potential revival of the LUNA ecosystem.

The world's largest crypto exchange Binance on Monday said it will launch a USTC perpetual contract offering up to 50x leverage after careful review. The move surprisingly comes amid a massive jump in TerraClassicUSD (USTC) and Terra Classic (LUNC) prices as Binance plans to launch the USTC perpetual trading today itself at 12:30 UTC.

Cryptocurrency prices have not started the week well. Bitcoin price retreated to $37,361 while the total market cap of all digital currencies dropped by 1.50% to $1.42. Some of the worst performers were tokens like Blur, FTX Token, Celestia (TIA), Mina, and ApeCoin.

Terra Luna Classic community has unanimously passed a crucial proposal amid efforts to revive LUNC and USTC. The proposal seeking community approval for the on-chain deployment of terrad client v2.3.1, related to incorporating dynamic validator commission module.

In the aftermath of a token crash attributed to an algorithm fault, Terra Classic (USTC) and the Terra Ecosystem have faced significant challenges. The market crash resulting from this incident continues to have lasting effects, with multiple attempts to revive the ecosystem proving unsuccessful.

Terra Classic Price Prediction: The recent turbulence in the cryptocurrency market, driven by factors like the delayed approval of Bitcoin's spot ETF and legal concerns around Binance, has led to increased selling pressure affecting various cryptocurrencies, including Terra Classic (LUNC). Experiencing a notable correction of around 30% from $0.0000972 to $0.00006, LUNC's decline seems to be part of a bullish pennant pattern, offering a potential recovery opportunity for investors.

The extradition of disgraced Terra (LUNA) founder Do Kwon to the US and South Korea has been approved by a court in Montenegro. In a new press release, the Higher Court of Podgorica has ruled that the legal requirements needed for extraditing Kwon to the US and South Korea have been met.
