LFG’s wallet now contains $1.7 billion in BTC, $549.84 million in other USD-denominated stablecoins, and $14.74 million in Terra, according to a dashboard it runs.

In total there is 42,410 BTC in its wallet.

This makes the LFG wallet the 19th largest in total holdings.

Should Luna meet its goal of purchasing $10 billion in bitcoin, it will have the second-largest bitcoin wallet behind Binance’s cold wallet.
