城堡证券向创办加密公司的前员工索赔超790万美元

Odaily Planet Daily News: Citadel Securities has filed a lawsuit in London, claiming over £6 million (approximately $7.9 million) from Leonard Lancia, its former European head of systematic market making for derivatives, who is also a co-founder of the high-frequency crypto trading company Portofino Technologies.

Citadel Securities accuses Leonard Lancia and his colleagues of planning their startup while still employed. It won a related labor arbitration, receiving compensation for damages and legal fees. Additionally, Citadel Securities filed a lawsuit against Portofino Technologies in the U.S. in 2023, alleging theft of trade secrets. Leonard Lancia and Portofino Technologies have denied all allegations. The High Court in London rejected Leonard Lancia’s request to lift an asset freeze order last Friday. (Bloomberg)
