Actually, the people holding LUNA did put their trust in protocol rather then people. No one knows if tether actually holds those reserves it claims to - but it's supposed to hold collateral. LUNA and USC was pegged to the dollar algorithmically by minting/burning LUNA.

Now we have like 500 billion LUNA so it's basically a meme coin.
