PANews reported on April 3 that Justin Sun said in a live broadcast titled "First Digital Trust (FDT) misappropriated public trust funds and Aria investment scam": "The important reason we chose to deposit in First Digital Trust (FDT) is because FDT is a licensed trust company in Hong Kong. Since the beginning of 2023, FDT has failed to pay investment interest, which has aroused Techteryx's vigilance and began to entrust a professional investigation team to conduct a one-year thorough investigation. With the endorsement of Truecoin's financial director Alexander Lauren, FDT was appointed as the custodian of TUSD's fiat currency reserves. US$500 million was transferred to a private company account in Dubai without authorization."
