TERRAFORM LABS SUES JANE STREET FOR INSIDER TRADING PRIOR TO TERRA COLLAPSE

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Terraform Labs' liquidation administrator has filed a lawsuit against Jane Street and several employees, alleging they used non-public information from Terraform insiders to front-run trades during the Terra-Luna collapse in 2022 that destroyed over $40 billion in value. The complaint cites a wallet linked to Jane Street that withdrew 85 million TerraUSD from Curve within 10 minutes of Terraform's unannounced 150 million withdrawal on May 7, 2022, and claims Jane Street planted a former Terraform employee to establish insider communication channels. The lawsuit also connects to the administrator's filing against Jump Trading for $4 billion in damages in December, which alleges that Jump leaked information to Jane Street. Jane Street disputes the claims as "opportunistic."
