Stephen Akridge, a co-founder of blockchain platform Solana, faces a lawsuit from his ex-wife, Elisa Rossi, alleging he misappropriated millions in solana ( SOL) token profits. Rossi claims Akridge exploited his advanced crypto knowledge to secretly collect her staking rewards. The lawsuit, filed in San Francisco Superior Court, seeks damages for fraud, unjust enrichment, and breach of contract. The couple, married for a decade, filed for divorce in February 2023. Rossi’s suit indicates Akridge managed her accounts from March to May, diverting staking rewards to himself. While the exact amount in dispute remains confidential, Rossi describes the sums as “significant.”
