According to Cointelegraph, the company behind Atomic Wallet asked a US court to dismiss a class action lawsuit over a $100 million hack on the grounds that the lawsuit should be filed in Estonia, where it is headquartered. In a motion to dismiss in the Colorado District Court on November 16, the Estonian company stated that the company "has no US ties" and requested that all lawsuits filed against it be filed in Estonia. Atomic also stated that only one user in Colorado was affected. The company also claimed that the 5,500 Atomic users who were allegedly affected agreed to its terms of service, which explicitly exempted liability for losses caused by theft and limited damages to $50 per user. Atomic said that the plaintiff's negligence liability claim has no legal basis because a legal obligation has never been established requiring them to maintain the security of Atomic Wallet and guard against hacker attacks. The Estonian wallet provider also dismissed the allegations of fraudulent misrepresentation. The plaintiff launched this class action lawsuit in August, two months after Atomic Wallet suffered a $100 million breach involving up to 5,500 users, and North Korean and Ukrainian gangs were accused of launching the attack.
