Terraform Labs Faces Uphill Battle As Progress Impeded by Frequent Accusations, Says Interim CEO

Terraform Labs is facing obstacles in the development of its projects due to frequent accusations, according to the new interim CEO Chris Amani. Amani discussed the challenges ahead for Terra in a recent Twitter Spaces event, noting that the accusations against former CEO Do Kwon have disrupted the company's momentum.

Despite this, Terra has nine projects in various stages of development that will be released in the coming months, with a focus on driving utility back to its native token, Luna. Amani acknowledged the challenges ahead, including a lack of liquidity and competition from other layer one protocols with larger treasuries.

  • US SEC submits final response in Ripple case relief phase

    Ripple Labs and the US SEC have made new progress in their legal battle, with the SEC submitting its final reply in the remedies phase of the lawsuit. In response to the recent brief on remedies, the SEC questioned Ripple's claim that the blockchain startup's behavior was not reckless, despite the court previously rejecting this "fair notice" defense, but Ripple's legal status should not have "broad uncertainty". The SEC also questioned whether Ripple might maintain its original position in the future, although Ripple has not violated any rules since the XRP lawsuit was launched in 2020. According to the remedy brief, Ripple attempted to downplay its responsibility while emphasizing its cooperation with the SEC since the XRP ICO in 2013. However, the SEC emphasized that under the law, even if Ripple has not engaged in any violations since 2020, the next violation is still expected to be possible. (Cointelegraph)
