Unfortunately, the algorithmic stablecoin Terra and LUNA collapse in May caused a massive loss in the industry. The crisis intensified the crypto winter of the year, leading to the loss of billions of dollars.

However, the new Terra ecosystem is gradually building against its previous loss. One of its distinctive approaches is the protocol’s burning mechanism. This action brought about the 1.2% tax burn for on-chain LUNC transactions, as proposed by one of the Terra community members.
