The Terra Classic (LUNC) market capitalization recaptured the $1B territory ten days after it crashed below the zone. The development was propelled by the asset’s recent surge of 18% in the past week following Binance’s latest monthly burn for November.

The value of LUNC skyrocketed by 15.5% yesterday, leading to a massive increase in its market capitalization, which surged above $1B today, per data from CoinMarketCap. The asset has begun the last month of the year on propitious grounds, as reports surfaced, indicating Binance’s commitment to supporting the LUNC community on the burning campaign.

Binance Terra Classic Burns

Binance, the world’s largest exchange by 24-hour trade volume, incinerated up to 6.3 billion LUNC tokens for November, as previously reported. Following the burn transaction, Binance’s total burn increased to 20.1B LUNC, with the total burn from all entities since the start of the campaign sitting at a whopping 35.2B LUNC.

LUNC Trading Volume

These reports reawakened investor interest in the asset as 24-hour trade volume rallied from $80M+ on November 30 to $126M+ on December 1, marking a 57.4% increase in less than 24 hours, according to CMC. The volume further surged by another 98% today, increasing to the current value of $250M+ at the reporting time.

The asset now secures the 39th position of largest crypto assets by market cap, above Huobi Token (HT), Pax Dollar (USDP), Tezos (XTZ), and Aave (AAVE).
