About Terra

Terra (LUNA) is a public blockchain protocol that aims to combine the price stability and wide adoption of fiat currencies with the censorship-resistance of Bitcoin. It was developed as a response to the crash of its predecessor, Terra Classic, and its associated stablecoin, TerraClassicUSD (UST). The new Terra blockchain continues the legacy of Terra Classic, but without the UST stablecoin. Instead, it focuses on building a robust ecosystem with the help of its community, known as "LUNAtics". The LUNA token is used within this ecosystem, and many decentralized applications (DApps) have agreed to migrate to Terra to continue their functionality.

Terra operates using a proof-of-stake consensus algorithm based on Tendermint, where LUNA token holders stake their tokens as collateral to validate transactions. The network incentivizes security by providing staking rewards of 7% annual inflation. This aligns the interest of validators with the long-term success of the Terra ecosystem. Terra aims to preserve its ecosystem with hundreds of developers working on different decentralized applications. The LUNA token is distributed across Luna Classic stakers, holders, residual UST holders, and essential Terra Classic app developers, making Terra a fully community-owned chain.

Terra aims to provide a platform for the development and use of decentralized applications (DApps). It seeks to evolve the world-class user experience and user interface that brought Terra Classic to second place in total value locked (TVL) at its peak. The Terra blockchain is designed to host a vibrant ecosystem of DApps, offering a suite of cutting-edge developer tools. This makes it a suitable platform for developers looking to build next-generation Web3 products and services. Furthermore, the LUNA token can be used within this ecosystem for various purposes, including paying transaction fees and participating in governance votes.

Terra was founded in January 2018 by Daniel Shin and Do Kwon, with the aim of driving the rapid adoption of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency through a focus on price stability and usability. The development of Terra Classic launched in January 2018 and the blockchain launched in April 2019. However, a bank run in May 2022 led to the crash of Terra Classic and its associated stablecoin, TerraClassicUSD (UST). This event led to the launch of a new chain, resulting in the current Terra blockchain. Despite criticism from various quarters, the revival plan proposed by Do Kwon was voted into effect by the community, leading to the hard fork of Terra Classic and the birth of the new Terra blockchain on May 27, 2022.

How Terra and United States Dollar differ

Terra (LUNA) and the US Dollar (USD) are two distinct forms of currency, each with their unique characteristics. Terra, a public blockchain protocol, aims to merge the price stability and broad acceptance of fiat currencies like the USD with the censorship-resistance of Bitcoin. Unlike the USD, which is regulated by the Federal Reserve, Terra operates on a proof-of-stake consensus algorithm, where LUNA token holders stake their tokens to validate transactions. This decentralized approach aligns the interest of validators with the long-term success of the Terra ecosystem. Terra also strives to provide a platform for the development and use of decentralized applications (DApps), offering a suite of advanced developer tools. On the other hand, the USD, a traditional fiat currency, is used for a wide range of transactions, from everyday purchases to international trade, but lacks the technological capabilities of Terra. The LUNA token, used within the Terra ecosystem, can be utilized for various purposes, including paying transaction fees and participating in governance votes, offering a level of participation and flexibility not seen with the USD.
