Tai Mo Shan, a subsidiary of Jump Crypto, has settled with the SEC for $123 million over misleading investors regarding the stability of the TerraUSD (UST) algorithmic stablecoin prior to its collapse. The SEC highlighted that the misleading actions contributed to significant losses for investors and emphasized the need for compliance with securities laws.The collapse of UST in May 2022, triggered by a large sell-off, led to a loss of its dollar peg and a cascade of liquidations, ultimately resulting in a formal investigation of Terraform Labs and its founder, Do Kwon, which culminated in a $4.4 billion settlement.
