Terra Luna Classic ($LUNC) surprised the crypto market on New Year’s Eve with a sharp rally of nearly 20% in just 24 hours. $LUNC token price climbed to around $0.000045, with its market cap hitting close to $250 million.

The sudden move left many traders asking what triggered the rally and whether it has real strength behind it.

Binance Burn Triggers Sudden $LUNC Rally

One of the main reasons behind $LUNC’s sharp price jump was a massive token burn linked to Binance. According to on-chain data, a single transaction destroyed 5.33 billion $LUNC under Binance’s trading-fee burn program.

This burn reduced $LUNC’s total supply from about 6.477 trillion to nearly 6.471 trillion tokens, tightening supply and boosting short-term market confidence.

On the upside, strong resistance sits between $0.000043 and $0.000049. A clear break above this range could push the price toward $0.000065.

Meanwhile, the RSI is near 52, showing a neutral market with no strong buying or selling momentum yet.
