Terra Price Investigation

    Introduction

    What Is Terra?

    Terra is an open-source blockchain payment platform for an algorithmic stablecoin, which are cryptocurrencies that automatically track the price of currencies or other assets. The Terra blockchain enables users to instantly spend, save, trade, or exchange Terra stablecoins.

    The Terra protocol creates stablecoins designed to consistently track the price of a fiat currency (a government-backed currency such as the U.S. dollar or euro). It consists of two cryptocurrency tokens—Terra and Luna.[1]

    Methodology

    • I split this dashboard into 5 parts and used the 5 terra.core tables below: terra.core.fact_transactions,

      terra.core.ez_swaps , terra.core.ez_staking ,

      terra.core.fact_nft_sales , terra.core.ez_transfers

    • count the number of transactions

    • count the number of users

    • date based on the day

    • date 9 january

    The Question :

    Beginning in the wee hours of Monday, January 9 (ET), the price of LUNA skyrocketed, from $1.37 to a high of nearly $2 before settling down at roughly $1.60.

    Identify some of the major reasons for this recent upshot in price, and back up your assertions with data. Why did the price jump so suddenly on Monday night? Will prices remain at, or above, current marks in the coming weeks or will it return to at or near $1? Why?

    conclusion

    According to the number of users and the number of transactions, as well as the number of exchanges and sellers and the number of shares on Monday, January 9, because it was the first working day after the holiday and the amount of supply and demand was out of balance in a certain proportion as a result of the currency price. It increased on this day, and in the days after January 9, we faced a decrease in the price, and it is predicted that it will not remain at the current price and we will see a decrease in the price to close to $1.
