Crypto Analyst on Terra ($LUNA): I Can See Price Hitting $100 by Year End
Recently, crypto influencer “Coin Bureau” (“@coinbureau” on Twitter) explained why he is so bullish on $LUNA — the native token of algorithmic stablecoin platform Terra — and gave his year-end price target for $LUNA.
According to Binance Research, Terra is a Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain. They also say that $LUNA is “used in the issuance of stablecoins (TerraSDRs), as a price stability mechanism, as well as for staking and network governance.”
Work on Terra, which was developed by South Korean blockchain company Terraform Labs (founded in January 2018 by Daniel Shin and Do Kwon), started in January 2018, and the Terra mainnet launched on 23 April 2019.
In a video released on his very popular YouTube channel on March 1, Coin Bureau had this to say about Terra:
“Terra has found a unique way to mint stablecoins that are pegged to various fiat currencies in a decentralized manner. The circulating supply of Terra’s US dollar stablecoin, UST, has doubled over the last month and has consequently become one of the largest stablecoins by market cap.“
He went on to say:
“I think this is one of the most exciting cryptocurrency projects I’ve seen in some time and part of me regrets not covering Terra sooner. The founders are legit – Terraform Labs is constantly innovating, and a lot of progress has been made since the Terra mainnet went live in 2019.“

More recently, in a video released on August 10, Coin Bureau told his YouTube channel’s more than 1.23 million subscribers:
- Although he does not have any $LUNA holdings at the moment, he is “seriously considering” putting money into $LUNA.
- Terra’s TerraUSD (UST) stablecoin is currently “the fastest growing stablecoin” with a market cap that has grown ten-fold so far this year.
- $LUNA is used for collateralising UST, with $1 worth of $LUNA being “always convertible to 1 UST.”
As for his year-end price target for $LUNA, he said:
“Now call me crazy but I could easily see LUNA hit $100 by the end of the year if its adoption and innovation continues.“
