The USTC burn has accelerated at the start of October, with a total of 473,200 USTC burned across the first five days of the month.
The figure is already close to the half million mark, with October 5 recording the largest daily burn so far. A total of 295,450 USTC was burned on October 5, although the day has not yet ended, meaning the final figure could increase.
USTC Burn Reaches 473,200 in October
According to the reported daily burn figures, USTC burn activity totaled 473,200 during the first five days of October.
The daily numbers show a significant increase on October 5 compared with the previous four days. The 295,450 USTC burned on October 5 represents more than half of the total USTC burned during the period.
| Date | USTC Burned |
|---|---|
| October 1 | 42,223 |
| October 2 | 29,506 |
| October 3 | 86,535 |
| October 4 | 19,486 |
| October 5 | 295,450 |
| Total | 473,200 |
October 5 is still ongoing, so the daily burn figure is not final.
October 5 Accounts for Most of the Early Month Burn
The first four days of October recorded a combined burn of 177,750 USTC.
The pace changed significantly on October 5, when 295,450 USTC was burned. That single day accounts for approximately 62% of the 473,200 USTC burned so far in October.
This makes October 5 the largest reported daily USTC burn of the month to date.
USTC Burn Activity Remains a Key Metric
USTC burn activity continues to be closely watched by the Terra Classic community because reducing the circulating supply is one part of the broader effort surrounding USTC.
However, burn figures alone do not determine the future value or market performance of USTC. Supply reduction is only one factor, while demand, liquidity, market conditions, adoption and the broader Terra Classic ecosystem can also influence the market.
With October 5 still underway, the current 473,200 USTC total should be viewed as an early October figure rather than the final monthly burn amount.
As more USTC is burned during October, the community will be watching whether the pace seen on October 5 continues through the rest of the month.
