Gate News Bot Message, December 11th, according to CoinMarketCap data, as of press time, USTC (TerraClassicUSD) is trading at $0.01, up 10.88% in the past 24 hours, reaching a high of $0.01 and a low of $0.01.

USTC (Terra Classic USD) is a digital asset within the Terra Classic ecosystem. USTC originated as an algorithmic stable asset within the Terra ecosystem, aiming to mirror the US dollar through on-chain market modules that balance supply and demand with LUNC. After the network adjustment in May 2022, the dollar-pegging mechanism ceased to operate, and USTC transitioned into a freely traded token, with its price fully determined by market supply and demand. Today, USTC is widely used as a volatile digital asset on the Terra Classic network—driving DeFi liquidity pools, paying gas fees, and serving as trading pairs on certain CEXs and DEXs. Terra Classic is an open-source, decentralized blockchain built on Cosmos SDK with Tendermint consensus. It operates independently from the original Terra network and is maintained by a diverse validator set and the most active grassroots organizations within the crypto community. Blocks are finalized in about six seconds, transaction fees are less than one cent, and the chain maintains full sovereignty over smart contract execution.
Important Recent USTC News:
1️⃣ Cryptocurrency Market Revival Continues to Attract Investor Attention
USTC has recently experienced double-digit gains, rising from a 24-hour increase of 10.33% on December 5th, to 19.64% on December 9th, and now standing at 10.88%.

Its market cap has grown from $37.77 million over the past week to the current $59.4 million, an increase of nearly 57%, demonstrating renewed investor confidence in this formerly mainstream algorithmic stablecoin.

Despite the significant setback in May 2022, the Terra Classic network continues to develop and maintain real use case demands for USTC. The token’s core functions—providing liquidity for DeFi pools, paying gas fees—remain unchanged. This intrinsic utility supports the token’s market value with solid fundamental backing, aiding in the sustainability of price growth.

A whale-led selloff is driving the Bitcoin market, and ETF institutional buy pressure is unable to turn the tide
A CryptoQuant report indicates that as of the end of March, Bitcoin’s “apparent demand” is -63,000 BTC, showing that the market has an oversupply situation, and institutional buying cannot offset retail selling. Starting in mid-2025, the giant whales began large-scale selling, pushing the market into a distribution phase. Although ETF institutional buying has increased, it has not been able to change the weak demand situation, and weakening domestic U.S. demand may further affect the market. Easing geopolitical tensions could become a catalyst for a short-term rebound.

BTC 15-minute drop of 0.73%: Technical support fails and on-chain congestion converges to suppress the rebound
From 2026-04-02 02:00 to 2026-04-02 02:15 (UTC), the BTC price fluctuated within the 66,858.6 - 67,355.0 USDT range. Over the 15 minutes, the return was -0.73%, and the amplitude reached 0.74%. During this period, market attention increased, short-term volatility intensified, and investors’ sentiment clearly shifted toward caution.
The main driving force behind this abnormal move was that the key technical support level of $66,700 was broken, along with the RSI falling below 30, indicating that short-term momentum weakened rapidly and investors’ willingness to sell increased. Additionally, the market sentiment became more cautious, and trading volume showed signs of decline.
