Ever since the Token burn mechanism was introduced in May 2022, a substantial amount of 402.52 billion LUNC tokens have been burned. As a result, the present circulating supply came down to 6.50 trillion.
Since LUNC and LUNA tokens are connected to each other based on their fundamental characteristics and token supply, their market price levels are also linked to each other. When LUNC price witnessed a hike following the significant token burn, LUNA price also increased yesterday.
