The Terra (LUNA) ecosystem’s infamous algorithmic stablecoin TerraClassicUSD (USTC) has recorded a spike in value despite the widespread ទីផ្សារគ្រីប correction in recent months.
Over the last 30 days, the token gained by a whopping 266% trading at $0.018 on July 4 from $0.066 recorded on June 4. During the period, the token recorded a high of $0.089 on June 29, according to CoinMarketCap data.
Notably, the rally has emerged after USTC lost its peg to the dollar in May and fell below $0.1 in line with the general Terra ecosystem crash.

Currently, USTC is considered a dead token since the original Terra blockchain is no longer utilised by developers to power decentralised apps (dApps) and other protocols.
Consequently, the pump can be attributed to the action of several crypto whales who are attracted to the token despite the low liquidity. Notably, such whales use their funds to pump the price with the goal of making short-term gains.
