The Terra Luna Classic price has fallen by 12% in the past 24 hours, dropping to $0.00012029 as the news of Silvergate Bank's liquidation sends shockwaves through the cryptocurrency market.

This is highly bullish for LUNC, since it would necessitate the large-scale burn of LUNC tokens, given the interrelatedness of the two coins.
And a large-scale burning of LUNC is needed, since to date only 39.6 billion LUNC has been destroyed, out of a
