Justin Sun takes legal action against FDUSD issuer First Digital Trust for $500M embezzlement

Justin Sun takes legal action against FDUSD issuer First Digital Trust for $500M embezzlement 

Tron founder Justin Sun has initiated a legal process against First Digital Trust, the issuer behind the FDUSD stablecoin, accusing it of embezzling nearly $500 million in client funds.

On a Apr. 3 post in X, Sun said he had met with Hong Kong lawmaker Johnny Wu to report the case and submitted related materials to local regulators and judicial authorities. The alleged embezzlement centers on FDT’s handling of client assets, which Sun claims have been misappropriated. 

Sun described the incident as “a major international financial fraud involving traditional financial institutions and web3 platforms,” and said it was time to expose how “loopholes in the trust industry” are being exploited. 

On the same day, Sun hosted a live podcast to further expose what he called serious irregularities, warning that FDT was effectively insolvent and still operating under the cover of a public trust.

Johnny Wu publicly addressed the case, confirming that he met with the complainants and raised the issue in the Legislative Council. “If the allegations are true, enforcement authorities will definitely take action,” he said. Ng emphasized Hong Kong’s strong legal system, stating, “International investors should not worry about a single incident.”

Sun’s accusations, which began on Apr. 2, had briefly caused First Digital USD (FDUSD) to lose its dollar peg and drop as low as $0.87. The stablecoin has since stabilized, trading at $0.99 as at press time. In response to Sun, FDT denied all claims and said FDUSD remains fully backed 1:1 by cash and U.S. Treasury bills. 

FDT dismissed Sun’s claims as “false information” and a “smear campaign.” The company warned it would take legal action to defend its name and accused Sun of spreading false information. Binance, which holds most of the FDUSD supply, confirmed the stablecoin’s 1:1 backing in an update. Its latest attestation showed $2.05 billion in reserves as of Mar. 1.
