On this Kwon said that the worst scenario may take place when Terra will buy Bitcoin and after 6 months Bitcoin will crash and also, as a result, demands of UST will go down. He noted that such situations may not keep his initiative to night.
“I’m sort of betting that the long-term scenario of Bitcoin going up and the reserves being strong enough to withstand UST demand drops is the more likely scenario.”
On these things, danku_r, a YouTuber, shared his stance and claimed that decisions to reserve Bitcoin behind the UST stablecoin will not back UST, instead, it will swallow the supply of UST contraction.
Under the systematic plan of Terraform Labs, they are aiming to reserve 40% of the reserved funds of UST in the form of Bitcoin. They are holding a total of 30727.9 BTC and most recently they purchased 2,943 BTC on 29 March.
