Terraform Labs Finally Down: What’s Next for Investors?

Published by

Terraform Labs is officially shutting down as its bankruptcy plan has been accepted. The SEC has accused the company of fraudulent activities that caused its investors to lose $40 billion when the TerraUSD and Luna tokens collapsed in 2022. After a long legal battle, the court has accepted its plan for bankruptcy. The firm has agreed to settle with the SEC. Let’s explore what lies ahead for the investors.

Terraform Labs faced serious trouble when its stablecoin, TerraUSD, failed to maintain its value. This collapse, along with the downfall of Luna, led to massive losses for many investors. In January 2024, Terraform filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, revealing debts and assets estimated between $100 million and $500 million.

On September 19, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Brendan Shannon approved the company’s bankruptcy plan. This decision is a significant step in settling its financial issues. The court described the plan as a “welcome alternative” to lengthy legal disputes, which could have dragged on for years. 

Settling Up with the SEC

The company has now agreed to a $4.47 billion settlement with the SEC, however the commission might receive a very little. The Securities and Exchange Commission has claimed only to be paid after the investors are provided with their loss claims. But many questions remain about how much of this will reach investors. 

What Lies Ahead for Terraform Investors?

Terraforms will start to liquidate its assets after the court approval. This is an important step to be performed, so that the investors affected by the collapse can be reimbursed. Terraform gives an estimate of $184.5 and $442.2, that it can pay to investors and other stakeholders.  Investors are still worried about getting their money back, though some feel hopeful with a slight rise in $LUNA and $LUNC prices.

The fall of multiple crypto firms and their tokens highlight the need for deep research before taking a financial decision to invest in them. The road ahead is uncertain but the lessons learned are important.
