Terraform Labs Authorized To Restart Shuttle Service And Burn 125 Million LUNA Tokens

by

As a seasoned financial analyst with extensive experience in the crypto market, I closely follow the developments at Terraform Labs (TFL) with great interest. The recent bankruptcy proceedings and the subsequent court orders have brought about significant changes for this troubled company.

A recent court decision allows Terraform Labs (TFL) to take crucial steps forward in their ongoing bankruptcy process.

Terraform Labs, holders of responsibility for defrauding investors and causing approximately $40 billion in losses due to the failure of TerraUSD and LUNA tokens in 2022, intends to tackle crucial areas of their business and negotiations during their journey through bankruptcy proceedings.

Reopening Of Shuttle Bridge And LUNA Token Burning

On Friday, the company made public a court order allowing Terraform Labs to restart the Shuttle bridge. This bridge, part of the Terra network, enables users to move their Terra assets between Ethereum (ETH), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), and Harmony, in return for corresponding wrapped tokens.

TFL intends to transfer all assets from Shuttle Bridge wallets to safer alternatives and offer users an uncomplicated method for exchanging wrapped assets within 30 days following the approval of TFL’s proposed Chapter 11 plan.

After this time frame, Transport for London (TFL) plans to permanently close down the Shuttle bridge, disposing of any remaining assets by burning them. Furthermore, Terraform Labs declared their intention to withdraw and destroy the 150 million LUNA tokens obtained from the Terra Community Grant.

In accordance with the bankruptcy court decree and the agreement reached between TFL and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), TFL will undertake the procedure to undelegate the control over the 125 million LUNA tokens that are currently being staked with the 49 validators chosen by the Terra Delegation Committee.

After the LUNA tokens have been undelegated, a total of 150 million LUNA (125 million from delegations and 25 million from liquidity provision) will be irrevocably destroyed, as per the company’s statement.

Terraform Labs To Wind Down Operations

A bankruptcy court has granted an order as Terraform Labs, currently engaged in a protracted legal dispute with the SEC, chooses to wind down its business activities pursuant to a $4.47 billion settlement agreement reached after more than a year of arduous litigation.

According to Bitcoinist‘s report, Chris Armani, TFL’s CEO, voiced his disappointment about the trial results on X (previously known as Twitter). Nevertheless, he assured that TFL intends to shut down its activities and pass the control of the chain to the community.

Instead of “On the other hand,” you could use “In contrast,” or “Meanwhile.” For paraphrasing the second part of the sentence, you might say: Do Kwon, the ex-CEO of Terraform, is wanted by both the United States and South Korea for alleged participation in capital markets and securities fraud. Additionally, he encountered legal issues.

In April, the Montenegrin Supreme Court reversed the extradition of Do Kwon to South Korea, sending the case to a higher court in Podgorica for further review. The Higher Court is now responsible for evaluating whether the legal prerequisites for the extradition have been fulfilled. Ultimately, the justice minister will make the final decision based on the outcome of this assessment.
