Justin Sun Accuses First Digital Trust of $100M Deficit

Tron founder Justin Sun has publicly accused First Digital Trust (FDT), a Hong Kong-based financial institution, of severe financial misconduct. FDUSD, a stablecoin from Hong Kong’s First Digital, recently dropped below its $1 peg due to concerns over its reserves, falling to $0.87 against USDT and $0.76 against USDC, before stabilizing around $0.98–$0.96. Sun claimed FDT, which manages TrueUSD’s reserves, is insolvent and urged users to secure their funds. FDT denied the claims, stating it is fully solvent and its assets are safe.

Bitcoin is under pressure, dropping to $81K as market uncertainty rises. After hitting $88K earlier this week, it’s now facing heavy selling, mirroring stock market turbulence after Trump’s tariff announcement. The altcoin market has taken a $50 billion hit, with ETH, SOL, and BNB struggling, while DOGE and TRX show slight recovery. Bitcoin is currently at $82K with a $39.45 billion trading volume. If it holds strong, $75,000 is within reach, and altcoins might follow with their own surges.
