ReHold is a crypto/DeFi protocol company founded in September 2022 under equal 50/50 ownership between co-founders Michael Semin and Renat Gafarov. The company operated smart contracts holding company profits and initial capital, and had been pursuing a token launch (IDO) and exchange listing negotiations, though these ultimately failed. In July 2024, an internal dispute arose when one co-founder allegedly withdrew over $700,000 from the protocol's smart contracts and took control of the company's domains (rehold.io, rehodl.io, rehold.finance), Google Admin, Twitter, and Discord accounts, leading to a public disclosure and legal action by the other co-founder.
