2. Laura Shin’s tweet about the $3.5 billion Terra Reserve move

Laura Shin, a crypto journalist, shared an article on blockchain company Terra claiming that the movement of Bitcoin’s $3.5 billion reserves was made to sell the majority of them in an unsuccessful effort to prop up the UST Stablecoin . Holders of the native Terra LUNA token and stablecoin UST together lost around $42 billion in the past week, the article details. However, $85 million in crypto assets remained in the Terra Reserve to offset them. The algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD (UST), was developed by Terraform Labs. Intended to maintain a peg to the US dollar, the value of the UST plunged from $1 to a low of just $0.04, resulting in billions of dollars in losses for US investors, the article details.

The Luna Foundation Guard (LFG), a non-profit organization created to foster the expansion of the Terra ecosystem, said it will purchase up to $10 billion in Bitcoin and other crypto assets to serve as a reserve that would support the UST stablecoin. As a result, between January and May 2022, 80,394 BTC worth $3.5 billion at the time were purchased by LFG, the article notes. When the value of UST started falling, LFG announced that it would buy UST by selling its Bitcoin reserves. Upon follow-up, Bitcoin reserves belonging to Terra were found to have been moved to a single account in Gemini, the US-based crypto exchange and to crypto exchange Binance, the article points out.
