Selling your claim

Documents you need to sell a Terra claim

To sell a Terra claim you need five things: your CLC form, the Kroll email with your determination, a government ID, a proof of address and your payout details. You then sign one document, the Transfer of Claim Agreement, and after the sale TerraClaim files the last one, the notice of transfer, with the court on the buyer's behalf.

This checklist follows the order of a sale. For each document it says what it is, where to find it and the problems to avoid, with links to the step-by-step guides.

Your CLC form

The CLC form is the claim image from the claims portal. Log in at claims.terra.money with the email you filed with, tick your claim and click Download Claim Image. When you upload it, TerraClaim reads the holder and the Allowed amount from it. Our CLC form guide shows where the button is.

Problems to avoid: uploading a phone photo or a cropped screenshot instead of the downloaded file, and logging in with a different email address from the one on the claim. Upload the file exactly as the portal gives it.

The Kroll determination email

Kroll sends a Notification of Initial Determination when your claim is decided. During onboarding you forward that email, unchanged. Its digital signature (DKIM) is checked, which proves the claim number came from Kroll itself and not from an edited copy.

Problems to avoid: sending a screenshot instead of forwarding the email, which removes the signature, or missing an email that went to spam. Search your inbox and spam folder for mail from ra.kroll.com. Our guide to the Kroll Terraform email shows what the real one looks like.

Your ID and proof of address

Identity verification is done by Sumsub and takes about five minutes. You need a valid government ID and a proof of address. The KYC guide explains what works.

Problems to avoid: blurry photos, an expired document, and an address that does not match the one you entered. This check is for the sale only. The estate runs its own KYC on every claimant before any distribution, whether or not you sell.

Your payout details

Choose how the buyer pays you. USDC is the default and arrives within 24 hours of signing, often faster. You can receive it on an exchange account, such as Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, Upbit or Bithumb, or in a wallet of your own. A bank wire is sent within 24 hours of signing; arrival depends on your bank.

Problems to avoid: a deposit address on the wrong network, or a typo in a long address. Copy the address from your exchange or wallet, check the network, and compare the first and last characters. Payout addresses are screened before payment. More in USDC or wire.

The agreement, and what to keep

The Transfer of Claim Agreement is the contract of sale. It was drafted by bankruptcy counsel. You sign it on DocuSign, and the buyer countersigns, usually within 24 hours. Every term of your sale is written in the Transfer of Claim Agreement you sign. Read it before you sign and keep a copy.

After the sale, TerraClaim files a notice of the transfer for the buyer with the Delaware Bankruptcy Court under Rule 3001(e). You do not prepare it, and you can find it on the public docket. How a claim transfer works explains the notice.

Keep a set for yourself: your CLC form, the signed agreement, the payment record (the USDC transaction or the wire confirmation) and your original purchase records for the tokens. You may need them for tax, so ask a tax adviser.

What you never need: your claims portal password or your seed phrase. On the verification call, you log in on your own device and share your screen.

How a sale works on TerraClaim

  1. 1Download your CLC form (the claim image) from claims.terra.money and upload it on TerraClaim.
  2. 2Confirm the claim is yours with the link sent to the email address on the claim. Your firm cash offer appears on the page and in your inbox.
  3. 3Accept the offer, then complete onboarding: payout details and identity verification (government ID and proof of address, about five minutes).
  4. 4A ten-minute verification call: you share your claims-portal screen and a specialist confirms the claim number, allowed amount and payout details.
  5. 5Sign the Transfer of Claim Agreement. The buyer pays you directly: USDC within 24 hours of signing, often faster, or a bank wire sent within 24 hours (arrival depends on your bank). The transfer is filed with the court.

Questions and answers

I deleted the Kroll email. Can I still sell?

Search your spam, archive and trash folders for mail from ra.kroll.com first. If it is gone, tell the desk in the chat before you start onboarding.

Do I need a lawyer to sign the agreement?

No lawyer is needed to complete a sale, but you can ask your own counsel to read the agreement before you sign.

My ID shows an old address. Is that a problem?

The proof of address is a separate document and should show where you live now, matching the address you enter. See the KYC guide if a document is rejected.

How long does the paperwork take?

Identity verification takes about five minutes, and the 10-minute verification call usually happens the same day. When you are ready, upload your CLC form.

How selling works, step by step

TerraClaim LLC runs a marketplace where creditors of Terraform Labs sell their Crypto Loss Claims to institutional buyers. TerraClaim does not buy claims for its own account, is not a law firm, broker-dealer or custodian, and does not give legal, tax, investment or financial advice. It is not affiliated with Terraform Labs, the Plan Administrator, Kroll, the SEC or the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. Selling a claim is final: the estate may later pay more, or less, than you receive. Consider independent advice before you sell.
