Binance Futures will update the leverage and margin tiers of the USDT-Margined LUNA Perpetual Contracts on 2022-05-12 with the new leverage and margin tiers. The max leverage of USDT-Margined LUNA Perpetual Contracts has been reduced to 8x.
The decision comes As LUNA, which had a market capitalization of over $40 billion a month ago, has recorded a significant loss of nearly $39 billion market cap in hours. The current market cap falls to $939M.
At press time, LUNA was changing hands at around $0.29 and ranked as the 67th largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $939M. Two days before, Luna was present in the top 10 cryptos but had fallen to 67th place in no time, causing deep concerns among investors.
