  A wrapped luna token is a representation of the original luna token on a different blockchain. It allows the luna token to be used in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications that are built on other blockchains. This enables users to access the benefits of the luna token in a wider range of applications and ecosystems. On the other hand, a regular luna token is the native token of the Terra blockchain. It is primarily used for governance and staking purposes within the Terra ecosystem.

  Wrapped luna tokens are typically issued by third-party platforms or projects that facilitate the wrapping process. These platforms ensure that the wrapped luna tokens are backed by an equivalent amount of regular luna tokens held in custody. This ensures that the value of the wrapped luna token is pegged to the value of the regular luna token. Users can convert their regular luna tokens to wrapped luna tokens and vice versa through these platforms.
