LUNA2 refers to the second iteration of the LUNA cryptocurrency, which emerged after the collapse of the original LUNA and its associated algorithmic stablecoin, UST. Following the substantial disruptions in May 2022, the creators of Terra launched this new version in a bid to restore confidence and deliver a more stable ecosystem.LUNA2 operates on a revamped blockchain. Unlike its predecessor, it does not depend on an algorithmic stablecoin, aiming for greater stability and sustainability. The new LUNA can be used for similar functions such as governance, staking, and participating in network activities.The rebranding and transition to LUNA2 also involved distributing tokens to holders of the original LUNA and UST. This move was part of a broader effort to restart the community and incentivize participation while addressing prior failures. Overall, LUNA2 represents an attempt to rebuild a network with lessons learned from its previous challenges.
