Do Kwon、Terraform Labs等遭到集体诉讼，指控其出售未经注册的证券:6月19日消息，根据一份文件，周五，Do Kwon、Terraform Labs（TFL）等被提起集体诉讼，指控其出售未经注册的证券，并就UST稳定币和相关代币LUNA的稳定性做出虚假陈述，以诱导投资者购买它们。
案件中提到的其他被告包括Jump Crypto、Jump Trading、Republic Capital、Republic Maximal、Tribe Capital、DeFinance Capital（这似乎是一个拼写错误，因为TFL没有这个相关联的公司）、DeFinance Technologies（可能是另一个拼写错误）、GSR Markets、Three Arrows Capital和Nicholas Platias。
诉讼称，尽管Terra代币具有投资合同的所有特征，因此是“符合Howey测试的证券”，“但没有向SEC提交注册声明。”
该诉讼还称，LFG的成员代表TFL促进了UST的稳定，并误导投资者相信可用的储备池将足以抵御“众所周知的UST/ LUNA投资者对银行的挤兑”。然而，在5月6日至5月9日之间，Terra生态系统特有的结构性缺陷“暴露了UST/LUNA交易对真相”。（The Block）[2022/6/19 4:37:54]
