As a matter of fact, Terra is now the seventh top cryptocurrency in the market. It has surpassed the strong potential coins such as Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and Avalanche (AVAX). As per the trading charts for the past week, LUNA is the token that records high gains among all the top ten cryptocurrencies.
The story behind this bullish rally might be the announcement of the over-the-counter sale of LUNA cryptocurrency from the Terra Foundation. However, Terra hosts 13 DeFi protocols, which seems to beat Ethereum’s DeFi market cap. Significantly, LUNA’s price has also risen due to the burning mechanism of Terra’s native stablecoin, UST. Furthermore, these updates and implementations have supported in all ways for LUNA to surge in price value.
