Terraform Labs, the company behind LUNA and stablecoin UST, has filed for bankruptcy in the United States District of Delaware after seeming to recover from the collapse of the Terra ecosystem in May 2022.

The reported value places both estimated assets and liabilities within the range of $100-500 million dollars.

According to a recent court filing, Terraform Labs has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States District of Delaware.

This comes amid its founder, Do Kwon, facing legal challenges and currently in extradition custody in Montenegro, he is urging the United States court to postpone his scheduled trial by four-to-six weeks, seeking the opportunity to attend the proceedings in person.

The court has scheduled Kwon’s hearing for January 29.

On Jan. 12, bitcoinlinux reported that Kwon’s lawyers declared to the court that it is unlikely Kwon will be able to attend his January scheduled hearing:

“Unfortunately, it now appears that Mr. Kwon is not likely to be extradited until February or March at the earliest.”

At the time of publication, Terra’s Luna Classic is priced at $0.00010534. The filing for bankruptcy has had minimal influence on its value, as the price has increased by 0.15% in the last hour, yet has declined by 5.25% over the preceding 24-hour period.

Bankruptcy Filing Swiftly Follows Terraform Labs’ CEO Change

Last year, the crypto community speculated that Terraform Labs was rebuilding its reputation. Especially, following the significant collapse of its ecosystem in May 2022.

In July 2023, bitcoinlinux reported that Terraform Labs had appointed Chris Amani as the new interim CEO.

Formerly holding the positions of COO and CFO, Amani was tasked with restoring Terraform Labs’ reputation.

Terraform Labs was the first of several crypto collapses in 2022. The domino effect wiped out billions of dollars of value from the crypto markets in a matter of days.
