 <p class="paragraph">Notably, Terra Classic reached a $1.5 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> market cap peak on December 4. This bull rally happened amid overall enthusiasm for altcoins. However, it was a short surge for LUNC, which experienced a huge <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="sell-" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/sell.html">sell-</a>off event just a few weeks later.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">This recent news could have affected the Terra Classic ecosystem and LUNC investors’ confidence. Moreover, the whole crypto market is experiencing a downfall, hitting LUNC even harder due to the bankruptcy filings.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Interestingly, Terra (LUNA) has experienced over half its market cap losses in the same period. LUNA currently trades at $0.5706 with $363.61 in capitalization at the 130th position. Both cryptocurrencies now have an uncertain future.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">All in all, the project faces another huge public relations challenge, with no guarantees that it will regain its strength. The price may continue falling moving forward. Therefore, investors must act cautiously while LUNC’s community calls for “buying the dip.”&nbsp;</p>
