Terraform Labs sued Jump Trading and senior executives for $4 billion, alleging the firm manipulated Terra’s ecosystem and unlawfully profited from the crash, the WSJ reported.

The administrator of Terraform Labs’ bankruptcy, Todd Snyder, has filed a lawsuit seeking $4 billion in damages from trading company Jump Trading and multiple executives.

According to a Friday Wall Street Journal report, the lawsuit alleges that Jump Trading unlawfully profited from and contributed to the 2022 crash of Terra. Alongside the company, the suit is also aimed at its co-founder, William DiSomma, and the former president of the crypto trading department, Kanav Kariya.
