Terraform Labs, the company behind Terra blockchain has announced an additional donation of 12 million LUNA or approximately $1.2 billion to the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) that will be directed towards its growth and stabilization to maintain the UST dollar peg.

TFL has donated 12M additional $Luna to @LFG_org. https://t.co/KOqaABKWZi The funds will be burned to mint $UST, and thereafter used to grow LFG's reserves. At current prices, this reflects another 1.2B incoming addition to the $UST reserves. 🌕 — Do Kwon 🌕 (@stablekwon) March 11, 2022 UST is an algorithmic-based stablecoin in the Terra ecosystem with an exchange rate of 1:1 with the U.S. dollar and is in part maintained by swapping of/for LUNA tokens when its market value deviates from its peg. The burning of $1 in UST results in the minting of $1 in LUNA and vice versa. The purpose behind the recent move is to maintain the stability of UST and its peg to the U.S. dollar. While other stablecoins manage to maintain this peg using various systems, UST relies on its relationship with LUNA, and the arbitrage opportunities that the treasury offers to traders. Earlier last month, the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) raised another $1 billion through its sale of the LUNA token to build a bitcoin-denominated foreign-exchange reserve for UST.
