Binance Futures warned that the parameters may be revised in the future.
Recall that on the morning of May 12, the price of LUNA dropped to $0.3. The trend was observed for several consecutive days.
Do Kwon, head of the Terraform Labs organization behind the blockchain, presented a plan to restore the UST price, but that did not prevent the bids from collapsing.
