LUNA and LUNC: A fight on the legal front, but what of the price front?

ambcrypto.com:

In light of regulatory actions following the collapse of Terra’s LUNA and its UST stablecoin, holders of these crypto-assets now seek compensation for their losses.

On 13 June, a class-action lawsuit was instituted against Binance.US and its CEO Brian Shroder by Jeffrey Lockhart, who sued for himself and on behalf of all other “similarly situated” claimants. According to the lawsuit, the claimants allege that Binance.US advertised and sold UST to investors as a “safe asset that could be used to earn substantial returns, including in the form of interest.” In doing so, the exchange misled its users about the “safety” of Terra’s UST stablecoin, it added. 

That’s not all either. On 17 June, Nick Patterson filed an action against TerraForm Labs, Do Kwon, and a few venture capital firms for deliberately misleading investors about the true nature of the UST stablecoin.

Ergo, it might be interesting to see how Terra’s LUNA and LUNC coins have fared of late. 

Over the last seven days, the LUNC and LUNA coins have suffered a drop in their prices. LUNC registered an 8.38% decline over the last 24 hours, trading at $0.00005355 at press time. Amidst the bloodbath of the general crypto-market over the last seven days, the altcoin recorded a 21% drop in value from $0.000068 seven days ago.

Furthermore, within that window, the coin’s market capitalization also declined. At press time, this stood at $350.68 million – A 21% drop from the $446 million it recorded a week ago.

On the other hand, LUNA did not perform any better. Exchanging hands at $1.79 per LUNA at the time of press, an 11% decline in price was recorded in the last 24 hours.

Considering an index price of $2.57 seven days ago, the coin declined by over 40%.
