I have a question about the USTC peg.
When we invest now at 0.03 or sth and the USTC get pegged at 1$ again, do we get the whole profit or how is that working? I wonder why noone investing at the moment when it somewhere in the future will make 30x?
I dont understand that. Arent stablecoins the usage of LUNC chain? Why theres still USTC then? In general it is one of the most important project for the crypto market. Stable coins are necessary. So there are no plans to repeg it from the stuff? Thatās a little bit sad in my opinion because many people lost money through this failed āstableā coin. So bring it back would at least safe all their money too.
The pegging mechanism has been disabled to avoid minting an infinite number of $LUNC.
Therefore, there is no technical reason $USTC will be pegged again.
It may pump or d ump as any other volatile assets for the moment.
If Community was given the power to vote again, they would certainly vote for a plan to repeg UST as it is an important value proposition of Terra/Luna (since the beginning)
This is not a plan. This is a community-based initiative that cannot work mathematically speaking.
Also, you have no proof that this validator is burning $LUNC with its rewards.
Iām not quite sure how the coding of $USTC works but from what I understand is when someone buys 1 USTC it is in essence created from nothing and sent to that wallet. Why can we simply not code to stop the creation of new USTC and make it so that the only way of purchasing USTC is from others. If this is not how USTC is created then I would assume that it is not just created when bought and destroyed when sold but it is exactly how other cryptos work. If this is the case then simple implement a percentage burn per transaction of around 1 to 2 %. This would cause USTC to skyrocket and it could also be used in conjunction with the first proposal. Once it is re pegged to a dollar it should be okay to reconnect to either LUNC or nothing at all as the price can then just be controlled in a similar way. Never issuing new coins under a set price of .9999USD. Causing natural demand to push it above .9999USD. There will also be no insentive for the price to go above 1$ because new coins will be issued when the price goes to 1.01$. This could solve all current problems and challenges but I am no expert.
USTC was created automatically by the network when the market price started to exceed $1: and it balanced out by burning LUNC (which reduced its supply, and nudged up LUNC price). Thatās why Anchors popularity made LUNCās price go up: a strong demand for USTC made LUNC worth more.
On the flip side: when USTC is oversold (and starts to be worth less than $1), LUNC was automatically minted. If the market believed that new LUNC was worth something all that would happen was that the expended LUNC supply caused a small price reductionā¦ but things were still stable.
But in a ādeath spiralā (what kills most algorithmic stablecoins, including UST/LUNC)ā¦ too much USTC gets sold all at onceā¦ more than can be offset by minting LUNC. The market doesnāt value LUNC so its price dropsā¦ but thatās the coin balancing USTC so it also dropsā¦ which causes more LUNC to be minted to offset USTC being worth less than $1ā¦ and all that new LUNC supply drops itās priceā¦ and now youāre in a spiral that ends up minting trillions in LUNC thatās worth less every secondā¦ crap
If you want USTC to peg again: you need market orders to buy it for $1, for as many of those coins as the market will sell you. That will take $10 billion USD or more, that the project doesnāt have. As I type this USTC is about $0.03ā¦ so you can do your part buy offering to buy it at $0.04. Then $0.05ā¦ thenā¦ you get the ideaā¦
the fact USTC still running something telling me the huge liquidity still there. maybe they wanted the old holder before crash to sell their losses. so then someone/entity/whoever still has a plan on this will buy them all and make USTC back to $1 or maybe more
