Community anger grows toward Jane Street.
The bankruptcy administrator for Terraform Labs (Do Kwon’s company behind UST and Luna) sued Jane Street, it's co-founder Robert Granieri, and it's employees. The main allegation is of insider trading and market manipulation that accelerated the 2022 Terra collapse.
The Crypto community, already angry from hearing the news of Jane Street’s involvement in 2022, started circulating rumours that Jane Street are also behind the recent market draw down, by suppressing the Bitcoin price by selling Bitcoin at 10am US eastern time every day.
To further enrage the community, the day after the lawsuit was made public the mysterious 10am selling halted and the Bitcoin price rallied by around 8% in one 24hr candle before being rejected at $70K.

The stock rose 13.3% in a single day to $3.91 following the rebranding announcement, but remains down about 96% from its peak last August

ZachXBT revealed that multiple employees at crypto exchange Axiom, including Broox Bauer, allegedly abused internal permissions since early 2025 to query sensitive user data and track private wallet activity for insider trading.
ZachXBT has identified Broox’s primary wallet and associated addresses, while leaked recordings further implicate several other Axiom BD staff and moderators in the scheme.
Axiom stated “We are shocked and disappointed to hear that someone on our team abused internal customer support tools to look up user wallets. We have removed access to these tools and will continue to investigate and hold the offending parties responsible. This does not represent us as a team, we have always tried to put the user first. We’ll share updates on our twitter as we learn more.”
