Terra Classic (LUNC) will fund development from validator profits.
In a tweet on Sunday, TerracVita, a group dedicated to Terra Classic development, disclosed that it had partnered with High Stakes Switzerland to launch a validator to help generate funding for Terra Classic development activities.
“Our volunteers have self-funded for four months, helping implement governance proposals, developing code, and restoring governance to give LUNC a chance of life.
TerraCVita helps this by funding those members sustainably and others,” the group wrote in a thread, encouraging people to stake with the validator to encourage Terra Classic development.

So far, the community has welcomed the news of the validator launch. All agree that the contributors deserve compensation for their efforts. Additionally, it bears mentioning that it also provides an incentive for increased development activity on the network. Unlike most blockchains, the now community-owned Terra Classic lacks access to venture capital (VC) funding or a cache of reserved tokens for development.

TerracVita disclosed that its team includes Edward Kim, MarventusWP, and RexYellerBelly, among others. Notably, all these individuals have been significantly involved in Terra Classic’s development and promotion in recent months. For example, Edward Kim is the author of the latest 1.2% tax burn proposal that has ushered in a new wave of excitement around the ecosystem as it promises to cut down on the excess LUNA Classic (LUNC) supply.
The 1.2% tax parameter change is expected to go live within 24 hours.
Notably, it remains unclear if the funds generated will be exclusive to TerracVita members alone or fund all of the Terra Rebels, the current umbrella group for Terra Classic developers. According to former Terra Rebel Ackbar, who controversially left the group earlier this month, the former is likely the case.
That you actually pulled this off is a shame for Terra Rebels. These people created their own validator so that they could divide the profits among a few 10 people instead of rewarding all of Terra Rebels.$LUNC #LUNC https://t.co/DLgDSl3sUT pic.twitter.com/m8N75aMkW5

TerraRebel commenting on the development, said:
“Finally, TerracVita has launched a validator so that people can help sustainably fund work to help promote and rebuild LUNC.”
