In the cryptocurrency world, USTC and LUNC, two cryptocurrencies belonging to the Terra Classic ecosystem, recently attracted significant attention among cryptocurrency market enthusiasts, as the USTC cryptocurrency witnessed a surge, resulting in a surge in the APR when betting.
The expected increase in APR on staking has created a buzz in the cryptocurrency space as investors and traders mainly recognize the advantages of staking cryptocurrencies, mainly due to passive income reasons.
Simultaneously with the increase in APR when staking, the two cryptocurrencies witnessed a phenomenal price increase in the past few days. However, the tokens saw a substantial decline in the last twenty-four hours.
APR on Bet Raises
According to a recent post by X from the Terra Classic community, the APR when betting is currently valued at 29.6%. Additionally, LUNC staking rewards include USTC, according to data shared by validator.info, a platform that displays on-chain metrics.
Aside from this, an X user also confirmed the availability of USTC at the APR, sparking speculation within the broader crypto markets.
Cryptocurrency staking potentially helps regulate and validate transactions on any blockchain, offering help in keeping the overall network stable, along with an incentive for cryptocurrency market enthusiasts to earn passive income.
Furthermore, the total value of LUNC coins staked to date amounted to $99.99 million.
