We all know that, the war between Ukraine and Russia caused a lot of financial, emotional and physical stigma to residents across both the countries. One such resident from Kyiv, named Yuri Popovich, after experiencing the havoc in his country, decided to convert his life time savings into a stable coin called Terra. Since, the International Monetary Fund sounded an alarm in March about the hike in the prices of oil and food and such a hike would only prolong the inflation in the country, the earnings of the residents would turn into peanuts. To avoid such a situation many residents like Popovich turned their life savings into stable coins. Thinking that the crypto market is in a stratospheric ride, Popovich thought to store his income by converting his savings of $10,500 into Terra. But his expectations were short lived!

Terra’s disastrous collapse.

As the market crashed, all the cryptocurrencies around the world faced the blunt of it. But, the currency which faced the heat the most was stablecoin from Terra. Terra USD lost its peg to USD dollar and was reduced to nearly a zero. Loss of such a value only added more trauma to Popovich and his life. His savings were reduced to a meagre $500. He was shocked to say the least! He went on to exclaim that he stopped sleeping at night and had lost at least 9 pounds.
