Tron founder Justin Sun has announced a $100 million bounty program for information leading to the prosecution of crypto fraud suspects. This follows his recent $10 million SEC settlement and claims his team developed an AI system that has analyzed over $1 billion in criminal cases. The program targets individuals accused of misappropriating reserves from the TrueUSD stablecoin.
Justin Sun stated his team developed an AI system that can process complex case data to identify suspects. He announced a $100 million reward pool for white-hat contributors and law enforcement aiding in successful prosecutions.
The bounty website, web3bounty.io, lists individuals allegedly involved in misappropriating stablecoin reserves. Those named include First Digital Trust CEO Vincent Chok and investment manager Matthew William Brittain.
The group is accused of pilfering approximately $456 million between 2021 and 2022. A further $109 million is alleged to have been taken from 2020 to 2021.
Sun recently settled a long-running SEC case for $10 million, with all claims dismissed. The resolution came as the Tron network faces scrutiny for its use in illicit activities.
Reports indicate full-year USDT transfer volume on Tron reached about $7.9 trillion in 2025. Tron’s low fees make it a frequent choice for scam operations in Southeast Asia.
Global illegal crypto inflows reportedly hit a record $154 to $158 billion. The FBI’s New York field office also recently warned Tron users about a phishing campaign.
