Do Kwon proposes Terra hard fork to save ecosystem
On Monday, Do Kwon, co-founder of the troubled Terra Luna blockchain, announced a revised plan to restore the ecosystem after a combination of significant market volatility and inherent protocol design flaws wiped out a vast majority of the blockchain's market cap. As told by Kwon, Terraform Labs will put forth a new governance proposal on May 18 to fork the Terra Luna blockchain called Terra (token name: LUNA). However, the new chain will not be linked to the TerraUSD (UST) stablecoin. Meanwhile, the old Terra blockchain will continue to exist with UST and will be called Terra Classic (LUNC). Under Kwon's plan, if passed, the new LUNA blockchain will go live on May 27.

Crypto Week at a Glance: The volatility of crypto and the de-pegging of a stablecoin
By Analytics Team, Giottus Crypto Exchange Bitcoin (BTC)’s volatility was on full display this week – from the highs of $36,000, BTC briefly went below $27,000 before regaining the $30,000 level and losing it eventually. BTC is trading near $29,000 today. The story of the week though belongs to TerraUSD (UST) and Terra (LUNA). Both were amongst the top 10 cryptocurrencies at the start of the week. UST’s de-pegging led to a capitulation in LUNA as it dropped more than 99 per cent in value and fell outside the top 200 list.

Crypto Biz: Luna’s meltdown will live on in infamy, May 5-11, 2022
Terra’s meltdown forced cryptocurrency investors to ask a question they never thought was possible: Will TerraUSD (UST) or Terra (LUNA) reach $1.00 first? The magnitude of this question provides a sobering reminder of just how quickly things can change in crypto. While Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon remains defiant, many people in the industry are beginning to distance themselves from the protocol they thought was delivering real-world utility for stablecoins and Bitcoin (BTC).
