Terra (LUNA), a smart contract network geared toward stablecoins used for e-commerce payments and decentralized financial services (DeFi), stole the show last year and challenged the ETH throne.
LUNA is on the rise this year. The cryptocurrency opened 2021 at $0.65 and reached an all-time high of $78.37 on December 4th. Thus it has been estimated at more than 11.956%.
With this performance, memecoin (DOGE) was toppled by Ethereum competitor Dogecoin and is now the 10th largest cryptocurrency. Its market capitalization is $25.70 billion.
The currency’s appreciation comes on the heels of its equivalent growth in terms of total closed value (TVL).
According to DeFiLlama, Terra’s TVL rose from $53.15 million to $13.32 billion. This represents an impressive increase of nearly 25,000% in less than 12 months.

Finally, the analyst noted that with the growing interest in crypto activity, the demand for stablecoins should increase. As a result, this could boost the LUNA device in the coming year.
