the split is similar in tone to that between Hive and Steem. It settled down in time.

The burn is not voluntary. The proposal which was passed will require asking the exchanges to setup a 1.2% fee on all LUNAC transactions for purchasing and burning... until the 10B supply is reached. It will require some coding changes on the chain ... work on that is underway.

That is why I'm curious to see if it happens. Apparently it has been done on some other chains.
