Terra LUNA Classic rallies in response to Do Kwon’s bail acceptance

While the Terra Classic community is awaiting one of the biggest upgrades in its blockchain since May 2022, LUNC price started a rally that yielded double-digit gains overnight. Do Kwon, the founder of Terraform Labs, received bail from a Montenegro court. 

The Basic Court in Montenegro’s capital Podgorica ruled for Do Kwon to be released to house arrest after attorneys provided details on their financial situations, according to the court’s official statement. 

Kwon’s bail elicited a positive response in the LUNC holder community. Terra Classic token’s price rallied 13.5%, climbing to $0.000101 on Monday. Over the past week, LUNC price yielded nearly a 15% gain for traders, based on data from CoinGecko. 

Upcoming mainnet upgrade could act as a bullish catalyst

In addition to Kwon’s bail acceptance, another bullish catalyst for the Terra LUNA Classic ecosystem is the upcoming mainnet upgrade. The v2.0.1 upgrade proposal will be voted on June 7, and the upgrade will be implemented on June 14. V2.0.1 will bring Terra LUNA Classic on par with Terra 2.0 blockchain and Cosmos networks.
