Over 7.2 million LUNA has been burned in the last week of November, fueling the altcoin’s price rally.
Hayden Hughes, CEO of Alpha Impact, a social-trading platform, told Bloomberg,
Luna’s economics are built to be deflationary, and over the past month we’ve seen 100 million Luna tokens be burned, which removes them from supply forever. This reduction in supply combined with the popularity of Luna staking has created a supply shock that has driven up the value.
