Inside the M0 Mess: How a Crypto Executive Got Allegedly Kicked Out of His Own Deal

Here’s a wild one brewing in Delaware’s courts. Max Glass, who used to run things at RWA Company, is now locked in a legal battle that reads like a crypto soap opera.

The gist? Glass claims the company founders—Gregory DiPrisco and Joseph Quintilian—basically ghosted him from a stablecoin project that eventually became M0, a blockchain payment platform. According to Glass’s lawsuit, the whole thing went down like this:

The Setup: RWA Company was cooking up a stablecoin. Glass says he was instrumental in building it, including a partnership with CrossLend, a German fintech firm. Everything was looking solid.

The Plot Twist: Right before M0’s launch, Glass alleges he got pressured into signing away his rights. He claims DiPrisco and Quintilian then used the exact same tech stack and CrossLend partnership—basically the whole foundation—to launch M0 without cutting him in on ownership or profits.

What Glass Wants: Damages, obviously. Plus formal recognition that the stablecoin project (which became M0) was his work, not some new creation the founders dreamed up.

The Bigger Picture: Glass’s lawyers say the defendants buried the real connection between RWA, CrossLend, and M0 for years. If his claims hold up, this could open up a messy precedent about IP rights and founder disputes in crypto projects—especially when projects go through rebrandings or pivots.

One to watch. Delaware courts don’t play around with contract disputes.
