Despite falling around 5% on Friday, the Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) price remains over 20% up versus the lows it printed earlier in the year near $0.00010.
The Luna Classic price was last around $0.00012, having reversed sharply back from earlier session highs in the upper $0.00013s.
LUNC’s drop comes as the broader market falls on sell-the-fact sell pressure following the SEC’s Bitcoin ETF approval.
Bitcoin (BTC) was last trading in the $43,000s, down over 10% from its two-year highs on Thursday.

Luna Classic price predictions are thus likely to remain pessimistic, despite it still being 20% up from a recent low.

LUNC’s latest reversal comes after the cryptocurrency rejected a retest of its 21DMA.

A retest of 2024 lows at $0.00010 looks likely in the short term.
And in the longer term, the outlook is even worse.
LUNC’s market cap is currently just above $700 million.
That’s a lot for a coin that has basically no utility.
