TerraClassicUSD (USTC), the stablecoin by Terra blockchain, has been witnessing a gaining spree lately. Not only USTC but one can also see that the rebranded version of LUNA known as Terra Classic (LUNC) is surging too just like it did the past week. Before talking about the price movements let’s first know what TerraClassicUSD is all about for a better understanding of the matter.
What Is TerraClassicUSD (USTC)?
The TerraClassicUSD CoinMarketCap page mentions UST and USTC relationship stating that:
“TerraUSD (UST) is the decentralized and algorithmic stablecoin of the Terra blockchain. It is a scalable, yield-bearing coin that is value-pegged to the US Dollar. TerraUSD was created to deliver value to the Terra community and offer a scalable solution for DeFi amid severe scalability problems faced by other stablecoin leaders like Dai. Thus, TerraUSD promises users a higher level of scalability, interest rate accuracy, and interchain usage.
UST is now called TerraClassicUSD (USTC) and only trades on the old Terra Classic blockchain. According to Do Kwon, there will be no migration of USTC to Terra 2.0 and also no updated version of the algorithmic stablecoin. Thus, TerraClassicUSD is de facto a defunct stablecoin and is not expected to regain its dollar peg in the future.”
