Terraform Labs Moves 1,075 BTC ($62.81M) to New Address as Part of Wind-Down Plan

On-chain data shows that a crypto wallet linked to the bankrupt Terraform Labs moved 1,075 BTC, valued at approximately $62.81 million, to a new address (bc1q5) on Sept. 2.

Bankrupt crypto hedge fund Terraform Labs moved 1,075 BTC, valued at approximately $62.81 million, to a new address (bc1q5) on Sept. 2, according to on-chain data.

While the firm has yet to comment publicly on the transfer, market analysts note that it aligns with Terraform Labs' plan to wind down operations following its record settlement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

After the transfer, Terraform Labs had around $2 million in various altcoins left in the wallet. According to Arkham Intelligence, the wallet holdings mainly include Convex Finance's CVX token, worth $986,000, and the Governance OHM (GOHM) token, valued at $790,000.

Terraform Labs' winding down

On Aug. 27, bankrupt Terraform Labs announced its plan to initiate Proposal 4818, marking the final chain upgrade for the Terra blockchain. This upgrade will implement crucial changes as the firm prepares to end its operations and support for the blockchain network.

According to the firm:

“As TFL begins winding down its operations, Proposal 4818 will be the final chain upgrade that we implement. Pursuant to TFL's settlement with the SEC and implementation of its proposed chapter 11 plan, TFL will no longer have the ability to support future chain upgrades.”

Going forward, Terra blockchain's future will hinge on community-led initiatives, such as the Phoenix Directive.

Meanwhile, the transition from Terraform Labs to community management could significantly affect the Terra ecosystem because the blockchain network has struggled to reach previous heights following the shock collapse of its UST algorithmic stablecoin in 2022. Since then, Terra has become almost a ghost chain, with several projects on the platform struggling for liquidity.

Moreover, Terraform Labs is also selling other assets, including platforms like Pulsar Finance and Station, to meet financial obligations related to its settlement with the US regulator.

Terraform Labs agreed to a $4.5 billion settlement with the SEC in May, including nearly $3.6 billion in disgorgement, a $420 million civil penalty, and about $467 million in prejudgment interest.

In addition, Terraform's co-founder and former CEO, Do Kwon, also agreed to pay $110 million in disgorgement, $14.3 million in prejudgment interest, and an $80 million civil penalty.
