Solana Labs co-founder Stephen Akridge is embroiled in a legal battle with his ex-wife, Elisa Rossi, over allegations that he concealed millions in Solana ($SOL) staking rewards during their divorce. Rossi claims Akridge exploited her lack of expertise in cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to keep the staking rewards for himself, despite a divorce agreement that included shared assets.
The lawsuit, filed in San Francisco Superior Court, accuses Akridge of fraud, breach of contract, and unjust enrichment. Rossi alleges that although she was given control over certain crypto wallets as part of the divorce settlement, Akridge managed to redirect the staking rewards to addresses under his control, depriving her of millions in income.
The case highlights the complexities of dividing digital assets in divorce proceedings, showcasing how cryptocurrency can become a contentious issue when personal relationships dissolve.
