Specifically, ~46.24M LUNAs were issued on May 10 and more than 80M additional LUNAs have been issued in the past four days,” according to a Twitter post<\/a> by Wu Blockchain. As for TerraUSD (UST-USD<\/a>), “supply burned more than 1.89 billion for 4d, and on May 10, 1.2 billion UST was burned, setting a new record for single-day destruction,” Wu Blockchain added. <\/p>\n \u201cThe market is displaying a clear lack of confidence in this ship\u2019s ability to right itself,\u201d said Quantum Economics Chief Executive Mati Greenspan, as quoted by Bloomberg<\/a>. <\/p>\n Selling pressure comes as bitcoin (BTC-USD<\/a>) remains around 50%<\/span> below its all-time high in Nov. 2021.

Note that the Luna Foundation Guard has reserves of 80K bitcoins, but the “LFG have been selling their Bitcoin in order to raise funds to push the price of UST back up,” GlobalBlock wrote in a note. <\/p>\n Also, cardano (ADA-USD<\/a> -21.5%<\/span>), solana (SOL-USD<\/a> -32.8%<\/span>), dogecoin (DOGE-USD<\/a> -26.7%<\/span>), polkadot (DOT-USD<\/a> -30.2%<\/span>), avalanche (AVAX-USD<\/a> -44.6%<\/span>), shiba inu (SHIB-USD<\/a> -29.2%<\/span>), polygon (MATIC-USD<\/a> -30.3%<\/span>), NEAR protocol (NEAR-USD<\/a> -46.3%<\/span>), algorand (ALGO-USD<\/a> -34.8%<\/span>) and internet computer (ICP-USD<\/a> -29.7%<\/span>) are making pronounced moves to the downside. <\/p>\n April’s inflation report<\/a> released earlier is perhaps impacting crypto prices more broadly, with the consumer price index jumping more than expected both M\/M and Y\/Y. <\/p>\n Take a look at what’s next for Bitcoin here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n![\"Gold](\"https:\/\/static.seekingalpha.com\/cdn\/s3\/uploads\/getty_images\/1325759693\/image_1325759693.jpg?io=getty-c-w750\")
