(Reuters) -Singapore-based Terraform Labs and its founder Do Kwon have reached a tentative settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission which sued them for allegedly misleading cryptocurrency investors before the 2022 collapse of the stablecoin TerraUSD.

The deal but not its terms was disclosed on a court website on Thursday. A jury found Kwon and Terraform Labs liable on civil fraud charges at trial in April.
