What Triggered Terra (LUNA) Resurgence?
Terra (LUNA) was triggered for a huge upward trend after the Terra team announced on Twitter that it’s working to fix issues associated with the token airdrop.

Terra team tweeted, “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.”
