Terra Luna Classic Pushes For USTC Repeg System
LUNC News: Terra Luna Classic community started discussions on seeking a flawless repeg system for USTC algorithmic stablecoin. The community thinks it’s time to get serious on LUNC revival and USTC repeg. Initially, a $250,000 bounty is proposed for the development of a flawless system to repeg USTC to $1, with plans to offer more than $1 million.
Terra Luna Classic Bounty For USTC Repeg System
In pursuit of restoring the stability and value of USTC to $1, a bounty of $250,000 is announced. The developer or developer group that develops a lawless system to repeg USTC will receive the bounty. A proposal is put forward that outlines the requirements, process, and expectations for this initiative.
“The primary goal is to design, develop, and implement a system that ensures USTC maintains its peg to the USD without the risks that led to the previous depegging event,” said a community member, NB_Crypto.
The key requirements for the system are stability, security, transparency, decentralization, economic incentives, scalability, and interoperability. The initiative aims to build a secure and stable open-source decentralized system. Along with these, the system must offer monetary incentives to maintain the peg, high throughput, and interoperability advantage.
LUNC Community Proposal Submission
A detailed whitepaper must be submitted to explain the mechanics of the USTC repeg system. Other requirements include technical documentation, security audits, economic models, and timeline.
The community-selected experts will review the submissions and shortlisted proposals will go through governance voting. The developer team will also receive support from the Terra Luna Classic community for integration, testing, and deployment.
Moreover, the community mulls further development activity after Tax2Gas implementation proposal by Genuine Labs was approved recently. It claims to boost LUNC price and the blockchain activity.
LUNC Price to Rally Amid This News?
While the news is appreciated by the community, popular developers are yet to react on the feasibility of the repeg.
LUNC price is trading near $0.000077 after felling 6% in a week. The 24-hour low and high are $0.00007652 and $0.00007782, respectively. Moreover, trading volume decreased by 33% in the last 24 hours, indicating a lack of interest among traders.
Meanwhile, USTC price also soared 3% after the initiative, with the price now trading at $0.01561. The 24-hour trading volume is down 20%. Notably, total USTC futures open interest has surged more than 3% over the 24 hours, with 5% and 10% jump on Binance and Bybit.

World Liberty Financial Purchases 14,403 Ethereum, ETH Price Rally Ahead?
Donald Trump’s decentralized finance (DeFi) project World Liberty Financial has purchased a massive 14,403 Ethereum in the last 24 hours, cementing further confidence in the altcoin. The project made a fresh investment of $16 million in buying these coins and is already sitting on profit as the ETH price surged 5% to $3,4000.
World Liberty Financial Stashes More Ethereum
Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has continued to accumulate Ethereum, spending a total of 48 million USDC to acquire 14,403 ETH at a price of $3,333 in the past 12 hours, as per data from Arkham Intelligence.
The organization now holds 40,765K ETH, valued at approximately $138.5 million. Additionally, World Liberty has a significant amount of ETH stored on Coinbase, which they recently deposited.
This recent accumulation puts behind the doubts that the Donald TrumpDeFi Project was offloading its ETH. As World Liberty Financial clarified, it was just part of routine transfers to new wallets and not part of their selling.
More Ethereum Purchases Coming?
On the other hand, Eric Trump, the executive vice president of the Trump organization has hinted that there’s more to come ahead.
Wait until you see what they do tomorrow! 🚀🚀 @worldlibertyfi https://t.co/v8eRDFImHo

Coinbase CEO Reveals Plan To Offer ‘Tier-1 Support’ For Solana Alike BTC & Ether
In an effort to uplift market sentiment, Coinbase CEO recently announced plans to offer ‘tier 1 support’ to Solana following transaction glitches on the crypto trading platform. Notably, the exchange’s CEO, Brian Armstrong, revealed that the transaction glitch on the network was fixed. Further, efforts to prevent such issues ahead were also underway.
As a result, the crypto exchange giant now eyes increased support for the network, mirroring the same level offered to Bitcoin and Ether.
Coinbase CEO Reveals Tier 1 Support Underway
In an X post by Brian Armstrong dated January 22, the Coinbase CEO revealed that the crypto exchange is aiming to provide “tier 1 support for Solana, with the same level of support as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Base.” This statement indicated that after recent withdrawal issues faced by users on the crypto exchange, efforts to prevent such events in the future were in the pipeline.
Notably, Armstrong stated, “It’s clear we need to step up our game on Solana, scale our infrastructure, and provide native support for common use cases like DEX/memecoin trading.” Although, the CEO’s statements underscored that although the crypto trading platform is currently unable to tackle the surge in activity, a positive outlook for users lies ahead.
SOL Transaction Glitch Fixed: Coinbase CEO
Meanwhile, the Coinbase CEO has also revealed that the exchange has “the Solana backlog triaged, and transactions should generate quickly again.” This statement comes against the backdrop of a SOL withdrawal halt, wherein leading crypto exchanges Coinbase and Binance halted withdrawals for the crypto amid high withdrawal volumes.
In turn, some traders remain unhappy due to the loss incurred amid the network glitch, whilst others look to withdraw funds as the issue is fixed amid a broader crypto market recovery.
SOL Price Surges Over 7%
As of press time, SOL price pumped nearly 7.5% intraday and is sitting at $257.48. The coin’s 24-hour low and high were $236.36 and $259.83, respectively. Intriguingly, the crypto’s rising trajectory in tandem with the transaction trouble fix, as revealed by the Coinbase CEO, has ignited significant investor enthusiasm. Moreover, the current pump also mirrors the broader crypto market trend, as mentioned above.
Also, it’s worth mentioning that the Solana network saw a huge surge in activity amid the meme coins TRUMP and MELANIA’s recent launch, a potential reason why withdrawal volumes on Coinbase surged. In light of this activity surge, a recent SOL price analysis by CoinGape revealed that the token may experience significant growth ahead. In turn, crypto market watchers continue to eye the token with bullish long-term prospects amid recent developments.

Tron Founder Justin Sun Reveals Plan To Push Ethereum To $10K
Tron founder Justin Sun has laid out an ambitious plan to drive Ethereum (ETH) price towards a $10,000 price point. Sun’s proposal includes halting ETH sales, taxing Layer 2 solutions, and focusing on Layer 1 development. These bold steps are designed to strengthen the token position in the crypto market and ensure long-term growth.
Sun’s strategy aims to not only optimize ETH supply but also create a deflationary system to build market confidence and attract further investments. His plan comes as the token market dynamics continue to evolve.
Justin Sun’s Bold Plan to Boost ETH Price
On January 22, Justin Sun shared his plan on X to push Ethereum price to $10,000. The Tron founder proposes ceasing Ethereum Foundation (EF) sales of ETH for the next three years. By halting the sale, Sun believes supply will remain stable, supporting a deflationary market model.
Additionally, Sun plans to leverage AAVE lending, staking yields, and stablecoin borrowing to cover operational costs, ensuring long-term sustainability. His vision includes restructuring the ecosystem and creating a more efficient system to fuel ETH’s price growth.
Justin Sun’s Vision for Ethereum and Layer 2 Solutions
Justin Sun has been vocal about his plan and making waves within the crypto community. He also expressed admiration for newly elected US President Donald Trump, highlighting the potential for crypto-friendly policies. Sun’s proposed tax on Layer 2 solutions is a key strategy, aiming to generate at least $5 billion annually.
President @realDonaldTrump consistently delivers remarkable results every day. We should strive to keep up and learn from his ability to achieve outcomes. 🫶
— H.E. Justin Sun 🍌 (@justinsuntron) January 22, 2025
All collected taxes will be used to repurchase and burn ETH, helping to drive the token’s deflationary nature. Tron founder plans to focus on bolstering Ethereum’s core development, ensuring its long-term scalability, and reinforcing its value proposition.
ETH Price Context and Market Update
Ethereum price has remained steady, trading within a range of $3,265 to $3,366 in the past 24 hours. Its 24-hour trading volume was $26 billion, reflecting a slump of 36%. Notably, Ether Futures Open Interest stayed near the flatline today.
However, despite the fluctuation, ETH remains a focal point for large investors. Recent Coingape reports indicate that whales have accumulated over $1 billion in ETH over the past few days.
Adding to the market dynamics, Tron founder Justin Sun has deposited a total of 227,000 ETH to the crypto exchange HTX over the past few months. This move by Sun, in conjunction with his ambitious plans for Ethereum, could further influence ETH’s price trajectory.
