Background and Response
On February 25, leading trading firm Jane Street publicly responded to allegations made by the bankruptcy trustee of Terraform Labs. A spokesperson for the company stated that the claims were unfounded and appeared to be a financial ploy rather than a legitimate legal action.
Details of the Allegations
Previously, the court-appointed trustee filed a lawsuit in a New York federal court, accusing Jane Street of engaging in improper trading during the Terra collapse by allegedly using confidential information from insiders.
Jane Street’s Defense
Jane Street argued that the losses incurred by Terra and Luna holders were the direct result of fraudulent activities carried out by the former management of Terraform Labs. The company dismissed the allegations as an attempt to shift blame and emphasized its commitment to defending its legal rights.
It also urged the public to remain objective and not be swayed by misleading narratives surrounding the case.
