The terra luna classic price has dropped by 3.5% in the past 24 hours, as part of a marketwide fall caused by speculation regarding the SEC acting against Paxos and the BUSD stablecoin. At $0.00016228, LUNC is also down by 10% in a week and by 8.5% in the last 30 days, with the altcoin seeing its market cap fall below $1 billion over the weekend.
