Terra Luna Classic token witnesses massive burn initiative

Cremation Coin, a community-led Binance Smart Chain token aimed at reducing the supply of popular cryptocurrencies with excessively high total supplies, burned 51.7 million LUNC tokens. The project’s focus is to reduce LUNC’s circulating supply, paving the way for the asset’s price to climb higher. 

Typically, with a reduction in circulating supply, if demand increases or remains unchanged, there is an increase in the asset’s price. 

LUNC could find support at $0.00014 before recovery

LUNC started 2023 with an uptrend as seen in the LUNC/USDT four-hour price chart below. The trend reversed and Terra Luna Classic made lower highs and lower lows, in its downtrend starting February 2023. 

LUNC is currently trading sideways in its short-term downtrend. LUNC price is in a descending channel and below the three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) at 50, 100 and 200-days. 

Terra Luna Classic token is close to its 78.6% Fibonacci Retracement at $0.000143. The next key support level for LUNC is $0.000133 and $0.000126 where the token spent considerable time in early 2023 and the end of 2022.

As seen in the chart above, LUNC faces two key resistances in its recovery, one at $0.000147 and the other at $0.000158. These levels have acted as support during LUNC’s uptrend, therefore, flipping these resistance levels to support could fuel a bullish thesis for Luna Classic.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently 33.44, close to the oversold level. LUNC has the potential to recover, it remains to be seen whether the token will make a comeback above resistance at $0.000147.
