From

"Also: Palihapitiya's is said to have sold his shares prior to the 2015 triggering of a mutual put/call option clause that would've given IAC the right to buy his stake. Thus, the deal's reported USD500M valuation might not be indicative of Tinder's market value."

My guess:
That VC investor who prematurely sold his stake for USD55 million, knew in advance that the famous "Tinder Lawsuit" was going to be filed. Perhaps the IAC was secretly negotiating a severance with Ms. Wolfe, and failed, then "Tinder Lawsuit" exploded a la Chernobyl.
The Tinder Lawsuit seems to be a case of illegal/illicit association between
2 Tinder cofounders
AND
the CEO from the Match Group
to displace/fire another cofounder (Ms. Whitney Wolfe)

It is a very serious issue many journalists are not paying the attention it deserves.
