    Terra Interchain Wallet - Terra Station


    In January 14 Terra officially launched their station wallet in the New Terra, a wallet that users were fond of it in Terra classic.

    • Terra Station can be acceded in their official web app or downloaded as an extension for diferents web browsers (Chrome & Firefox) and differents Operating Systems (Linux, Windows, Mac).
    • Terra Station Wallet is also an interchain wallet and that means users can interact with other blockchains from the Inter-Blockchain Communication.
    • And most important This wallet connects Terra and Terra Classic
    • Users can easily stake their $LUNA.
    • Users can import an existing Terra Station or Interchain wallet such as Keplr and others (Docs)

    More Information from this announcement in their Tweet and Medium Article.

    The 🔥Hype🔥 in 🌎Terra🌍 after Terra Station Launch


    We’ll look at activity in Terra in a range of 14 days to measure the impact of the announcement in the Terra blockchain.

    • Before Announcement: January 7 until January 13
    • After Announcement: January 14 until January 20

    With these date ranges we’ll see how is the impact of the new wallet announcement in differents areas such as:

    • General Activity: Transactions, Users and Contracts.
    • Swap Activity
    • NFT Sales Activity

    There is a high amount of pie/bar charts, and this is because the information they provide is the better for this case, they show exactly the total amount of these time periods!

    I suggest to check always the difference between January 8 and 15, to see how this official announcement improved the activity of a Sunday

    Summary


    After the announcement a lot of differents areas spiked in activity and the $LUNA price also spiked reaching the $2.

    I think of three possible cases that explain this surge in activity:

    • After the announcement $LUNA price increased and therefore the Activity.
    • $LUNA Price didn’t increase because of the announcement but for other factors raising the activity.
    • Activity Increased because of the Announcement and therefore $LUNA price.

    These are my three possible cases, ==but i think that the announcement was the reason of the spike in both activity and price and my reason is:

    Activity reached a Spike 1 day after the announcement in January 15, a ==SUNDAY!!!

    Is very rare for a Sunday to have a spike in overall activity (Just look at January 8 Activity), and also the $LUNA price considering that most of the markets are freeze in Weekends, so is very probably that people after reading the announcement create their station wallet and started interacting with Dapps, specially Decentralized Exchanges.

    We can see a surge in Swaps activity after the announcement with a lot of swaps made, and all these kinds of activity made the $LUNA price increase the following days.

    NFT Sales doesn’t seem to be exactly correlated with the announcement, but still there are some spikes in the days after.

    There is a lot of new contracts days after the announcement, and significant spikes in new users.

    The announcement increased the Activity in Terra reaching a powerful spike in the Weekend
