THORChain’s THORFi and Legal Developments
In a significant development for digital asset investors, THORChain’s lending and savings platform, THORFi, is at the center of a potential legal battle stemming from a devastating financial collapse that occurred on January 23, 2025. Users collectively lost more than $200 million as a result of alleged mismanagement and insolvency, and now efforts are underway to recover the lost funds through a lawsuit aimed at reclaiming these digital assets.
