Trove’s TROVE token lost 95% of its value following a pivot from Hyperliquid to Solana, fueling refund demands, legal threats, and accusations over retention of ICO funds.
Trove Markets’ TROVE token has crashed 95% after the team announced a pivot from its originally marketed Hyperliquid integration to development on Solana while retaining most of the $11.5 million raised in its oversubscribed ICO. The platform confirmed it would keep the token sale funds despite the change in direction, triggering refund requests and legal threats from investors. The token’s value, which debuted at a $20 million fully diluted valuation, is now under $1 million. Allegations of market manipulation, including insider trading and token dumping, have been reignited alongside accusations of false marketing prior to its January 20 token generation event.
