The Terra Luna Classic price has dropped by 3% in the past 24 hours, dipping to $0.00016896 as the wider cryptocurrency market suffers a 0.5% fall. Its current level marks a 7% decline in a week, yet LUNC remains up by 18% in the last 30 days, helped in part by the market's mini-recovery and by ongoing efforts to reduce the altcoin's supply.
