Last night I planned to rest early, but I ended up diving into on-chain data for LUNC and never came out. I drank three cups of coffee, my eyes strained and sore, and the final data analysis I compiled caused my heart rate to spike. This needs to be clarified, especially for those holding LUNC: if a large-scale return of funds related to TFL victims truly occurs, we may face an extreme crossroads — either soaring to new heights or crashing straight through the floor.



Let's first review the background. After the Terra ecosystem collapsed, the funds involved with TFL victims have been stuck in freezing and liquidation procedures. The court previously issued a ruling approving the handling of some assets through restarting certain cross-chain channels, and explicitly mentioned the destruction of 150 million related tokens. Recently, community discussions have been very active, and these dormant funds are about to be officially unfrozen — this is no small number, directly affecting LUNC's circulating supply and market sentiment.

My key discovery from late-night data digging reveals two possible development paths. I will present my final judgment last, so you can listen to the ideas first and then share your opinions.

**Scenario 1: Large-scale destruction really happens**

From a basic logic standpoint, this is the most exciting scenario. After all, the core narrative of LUNC revolves around token burns and supply contraction. By mid-2025, the total destroyed tokens have exceeded 410 billion, and with the support of major trading platforms, there have been multiple large burn events. Each significant burn tends to trigger a short-term rally driven by market sentiment.

If a considerable portion of the returned funds are directly burned or locked according to the established plan, the supply-side pressure will be significantly alleviated. Coupled with the market’s current sensitivity to supply reduction narratives, this could easily spark a wave of buying momentum. Especially if the burn scale is large enough to alter long-term supply expectations, this moment could serve as a pivotal turning point.

**Scenario 2: Liquidity shock**

On the other hand, there is another risk that might be underestimated. If these unfrozen funds are returned as liquidity rather than being burned, a large influx of LUNC into the market could occur in the short term. During this process, early victims and recent holders will be in a highly asymmetric psychological state — one side eager to liquidate quickly for compensation, the other potentially facing absorption pressure.

In this case, the market supply will suddenly increase, and if demand does not expand in tandem, a price decline becomes almost inevitable. This process could be quite rapid and intense, especially if the timing of fund returns is highly concentrated.

Overall, the key depends on the specific method of fund unfreezing — whether it leans toward destruction and supply reduction or more toward liquidity return. The market is currently in a period of information waiting, and the outcome of this wait could determine LUNC’s trajectory over the coming months. Regardless of which scenario unfolds, this is a critical point to watch closely.

Oh no, another night of being taught a lesson by the market... Staying up all night analyzing data is really a habit that needs to change, but this time’s discovery definitely serves as a wake-up call. Whether it's destruction or liquidity return, these two extremes can truly determine our fate. This rebirth depends on how the funds are handled; the test of faith has arrived, everyone. Isn't this the most testing time for patience in the bottom range? Opportunities and risks always coexist, so just wait patiently. Honestly, I feel a bit anxious, but the phoenix must go through cycles, right? Just tough it out and see it as a chance to build positions. When losing money, it's most important to stay clear-headed. If the 1.5 billion tokens destruction really happens... the law of conservation of energy is indeed correct. Don’t panic, this dip is actually preparing for the next rally. Whoever can endure until the end will be the one to laugh last. My goodness, this analysis has confused my mind. Still, as the saying goes—waiting is a process of rebuilding your mindset.

This guy's analysis is indeed sharp, but I just want to know what we retail investors should do if it really crashes down. If not destroyed, then it really depends on who can run faster. Wait, 150 million tokens destroyed... this number doesn't sound like it can significantly change supply expectations. Once large funds start returning, this wave of emotional selling will probably be more intense than the fundamentals. Let me bet that the more likely outcome is liquidity return. Wake up, everyone. Isn't it normal for victims to be eager to cash out?

Damn, if this compensation fund really comes through, LUNC might have to take a gamble.

Let me see what this guy has uncovered... Is it really just these two options: destruction or dumping?

Damn, 150 million burned or dumped, this is gambling. Either make a satisfying profit or go straight to zero. Staying up late analyzing this? Bro, you really love LUNC. Anyway, I'm betting on the burn move. If liquidity is returned, I would have already run. This is the moment of life or death for LUNC. Wait until the unfreezing moment, that will decide everything.

Damn, LUNC is now risking everything. Whether to burn or dump depends entirely on how this wave of funds is handled.

Damn, these two paths are like heaven and hell. I bet destroying that route won't go so smoothly.
