Terra accidental airdrop leads to smear campaign, community member claims
Terraform Labs (TFL), the firm behind the defunct algorithmic stablecoin TerraUST (USTC), and its co-founder Do Kwon is back in the limelight again for allegedly running a smear campaign and issuing threats against one of their own community members.
It all started in the month of May with the genesis airdrop that was planned after the original ecosystem imploded in the wake of its stablecoin depeg. TFL, in a Twitter thread, claimed that Jimmy Le, a community member entrusted with Terra community funds, has refused to return funds gained during the genesis airdrop.
The thread noted that the newly minted token, now called LUNA, was airdropped to individuals holding the original native token (now called) LUNAC. However, an error with regard to CW3 multi-sig wallets resulted in individual signers of these multi-sigs receiving LUNA airdrops, which they should not have.
TFL claimed that all other multisig singers returned the accidental airdrop except for Jimmy and despite their best efforts, he is yet to cooperate with them.
5/ All Ozone and Interchain Incentives multi-sig signers have since returned 100% of the $LUNA they received in the Genesis airdrop where technically possible -- except for Jimmy.
Jimmy, the individual accused of not returning the accidental airdrop, responded to the TFL tweet thread on Jan. 9 and accused them of running a smear campaign against him. He said the firm has deliberately chosen to present one side of the story and has also lied about their interactions. He claimed that at no point he refused to return the accidental airdrop but wanted to make sure about the tax implications because of the tokens he had received.
