Terraform Labs, through bankruptcy administrator Todd Snyder, filed a $4 billion lawsuit against Jane Street Group on Monday in Manhattan federal court, alleging insider trading and frontrunning tied to the May 2022 collapse of TerraUSD (UST) and LUNA, The Wall Street Journal reports. The complaint claims Jane Street executed an $85 million UST sale minutes after a confidential liquidity withdrawal by Terraform Labs, worsening the UST peg while insulating the firm from losses; it names Jane Street cofounder Robert Granieri and employees Bryce Pratt and Michael Huang, alleging access to nonpublic internal decisions enabled the disputed trades. Previous investigations examined Telegram chats among Jump Trading, Jane Street, and Alameda Research regarding possible market manipulation before the collapse, and Terraform's administrator has also lodged a $4 billion claim against Jump Trading tied to the UST rescue plan. Terraform's collapse erased roughly $40 billion in market value, and the broader Terra community welcomed the Jane Street filing as part of ongoing efforts to recover value and address alleged misconduct.

Crypto.com secured conditional approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency on Feb. 13 to establish Foris Dax National Trust Bank in the United States, putting the exchange on track to operate as Crypto.com National Trust Bank once regulators grant final clearance, the OCC said. The planned entity will be a limited-purpose national trust bank that will not accept public deposits or issue consumer or commercial loans, and will instead focus on institutional digital-asset custody, trade settlement, and staking across several blockchain networks, including assets linked to the company's Cronos network. The charter remains conditional while Crypto.com completes risk management systems, strengthens internal controls, and confirms compliance processes that regulators will review before final approval; during the transition, the company will continue operating its New Hampshire custody unit, and the national charter brings institutional custody under federal oversight, allowing the company to reduce reliance on separate state licenses. Crypto.com joins Ripple, Circle, Paxos and Fidelity in obtaining conditional approval for an OCC trust bank charter, and BitGo received full OCC approval to convert its state trust company into a nationally chartered trust bank late last year, Eleanor Terrett reported on Feb. 23, 2026.
