Binance is among the exchanges supporting the Terra ecosystem’s relaunch, and it will initiate a multi-year airdrop campaign to permitted users on Tuesday at 6:00 a.m. UTC, as well as trading the token.
Although the project seeks to re-establish itself as part of Do Kwon’s revival strategy, observers expect that the price will fall even further after the Binance drop goes live.

Many individuals have turned to Twitter to express their frustration with Terra’s previous airdrops, with Twitter user cryptocevo posting on Monday that:
“I lost 50k on $LUNA and received a $112 airdrop. I’d rather have the whole rug. In the wound, one small airdrop is like a pinch of salt.”
The official terra money Twitter handle stated earlier today that there had been challenges with the airdropping so far and promised to find a solution as soon as possible.
“We’re aware that some people did receive less $LUNA than anticipated from the airdrop, and we’re looking for a solution.” We will share further details once we have acquired whole data,” the tweet read.
📣 Attention $LUNA airdrop recipients 📣
We are aware that some have received less $LUNA from the airdrop than expected & are actively working on a solution.
More information will be provided when we have gathered all of the data, so stay tuned.
