The Terra Luna Classic price has dropped by 3% in the past 24 hours, with the coin slipping to $0.00008443 and marking a 4.5% loss in the last seven days.
LUNC is also down by 13.5% in the past month and by 42% since the beginning of the year, with this latter decline standing in stark contrast to most other major tokens (e.g. BTC is up by 83% since January).

Most recently, this community has accepted a proposal to model and simulate a mechanism that would incrementally re-peg USTC, largely via a process of buybacks.
However, this isn't the first such proposal to be
