To facilitate the smooth transition, the crypto exchange will temporarily halt deposits and withdrawals of Terra Classic tokens from 13:15 (UTC). Notably, spot and margin trading of LUNC and USTC on the Terra Classic (LUNC) network will continue unaffected during the upgrade.

The community has expressed excitement over the upgrade, as shown in the recent spike in the LUNC trading volume. The excitement for this upgrade can also be seen in how the validators responded, with 99.86% voting yes, 0.08% voting no, 0.04% voting no with veto, and 0.02% abstaining from voting.

The v2.2.0 upgrade brought a series of essential changes like an upgrade to the cosmos SDK, Tendermint migration to CometBFT, moving IBC-go to v6, and more. It also brought some previously approved upgrades.

Despite the momentous improvement, LUNC is down 3.54% over the last seven days. However, it has shown some improvement with an increase of 2.83% over the previous 24 hours. The network upgrades are one of the things community members are hoping will drive up the price, although a machine learning algorithm has different predictions.
