Do Kwon is finally arrested and that's good news, this guy and FTX Sam have the same drive in common, they should both be spending years behind bars, this will set an example for any future incoming FTX and Terra Luna, I know big scammers like these two are still out there looking for an opportunity to mess with peoples lives, this is why crypto regulation is important.

Just saw a notification from one of the crypto media and this is a good thing because he should not just live freely after making many people lose because of his actions, his defense should not be an excuse that he is innocent, because his actions not only harmed many people but made the crypto world always a bad conversation and its adoption became questionable because crypto became one of the ways people cheat to enrich themselves.
I agree with you and I also hope there will soon be another severe judgment against the SBF, those who want to disrupt this market need to have penalties for them to disrupt the financial system of a market.
Although I also had faith in Luna before after a lot of information I knew, but I gradually lost trust in them, all that's left is a pile of trash and we need to clean up the bad things from space.
Has the owner of Terra Luna been arrested? If not, how long will the search process take and who will be looking for him? If he has been caught, what is the most severe punishment for him, while it is included in a civil case. Civil cases only replace investor losses, if he is able to cover investor losses. If he is unable to cover the loss he is simply imprisoned, there is no death penalty for such cases.

Well I think we can all agree on something. It is going to be over for him and long time before he gets out of jail.

I think he is in very big trouble, fake passport plus other issues hanging on his neck before this, all he can pray for now is mercy from the judge not to give him a long sentence. his likely  going to be moved to South Korea for now, I do not know how his case with SEC is going to pan out after servicing his time in S.korea, because the SEC hammer is still out there waiting for him

Glad to see this POS has been arrested, he’s been on the run for a long time now. I’m not sure how much if any of the money owed can be reclaimed & paid back to people but at least he’s caught now.

Let’s see him face the law, hopefully a very long prison sentence at the very least.

Terra founder Do Kwon arrested
https://www.euronews.com/next/2023/03/24/fugitive-do-kwon-wanted-over-40-billion-terra-luna-crypto-crash-arrested-in-montenegro
"Police in Montenegro have arrested Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon, who is wanted in South Korea in connection with a $40 billion (€37 billion) crash of the firm’s cryptocurrency that devastated retail investors around the world, the country’s interior minister said on Thursday.

"Montenegrin police arrested an individual who is believed to be one of the most wanted fugitives, South Korean citizen Do Kwon," interior minister Filip Adzic said on Twitter.

South Korea’s Justice Ministry on Friday confirmed the arrest of Kwon and another unidentified individual linked to the cryptocurrency crash and said it will proceed with steps to extradite them to South Korea. "

This is good news since those past victim of Terra crash can get a justice for the financial loss they experience to that project. Now for sure the updates waited by people who already know the news is how long the sentence will Do Kwon got for the crimes he did to many people. This serves as warning to other scammers that they cannot escape to the crime they do and there's always law that will hunt them.

Sorry for anyone who has lost money in this fiasco but I am looking forward to the Netflix documentary that will come out in 2026 for this.
So there's already an anticipated movie for this LUNA-UST crash? Wow can't wait who'll starred it and if DK will still be on the loose even after 2026. I think he'll be caught but on how the authorities will do that was still a mystery considering Interpol already in pursuit but not yet on their custody.
They just started this plan after what happenf to LUNA i guess and it's really interesting on how they will plot a twist here. DK should surrender himself and avoid making any further action, Interpol can't do something about if DK is still in Korea. If DK will not defend his side, most probably the verdict will be guilty.
I think even if he defend his side his still guilty over what happened to Luna and that will never change. If he's not, why is he still in hiding? I doubt if he surrender himself to the authorities unless it really threaten him fully that he'll goes out of hiding. The question now is, will those who got into this mess of DK be compensated?

But I think there will be no solution by filing a case against Do kwon because he will never be able to return such a huge fund.
Having said that, i actually hope there are a whole lot of investors who learnt from this unfortunate events that happened with Do Kwon and his scam coin, there will be many other similar projects that will come out in the future, and rather than people chasing after what will cause them loss, they should basically just invest in a long term project like Bitcoin.
There are still many projects in the market which are useless but due to the involvement of big people those projects are listed on major exchanges. Small investors continue to invest in a project until it emerges as a scam in the crypto market. Over time, many projects have been proven to be scams and the scammers have scammed the investors and run away with the money. But crypto investors never learn from these incidents and keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

Wouldn't be the first project owner to do something wrong and be called to stand. I mean dude was responsible for the losses of hundreds of millions of dollars, he would be charged with something of course.

Aside from that incompetence decision it was rumored that Terralabs wallet is involved in UST crash[1].  Aside from that,  Terralabs employees reported to SEC that Do Kwon is cashing out $80m a month prior the collapse of UST.[2]

Even if you do not think that he did it himself, and took the money, you would still understand how he was responsible to prevent something like this to happen and in that case we would be having some sort of situation with the law because if you were supposed to protect the investors money and they all lost it because of you, then you would be charged with something. That's what I would be expecting people to do and he has to face this in order to make it better.

His incompetent decision alone to change the daily creation of Terra Luna that lead to Hack and further lead to Terra Luna crash is a good reason enough to sue Do Kwon.  He did it himself and there are traces.  I think $57m lawsuit is too small when he was reported cashing out $80m from the funds of the company.

Unfortunately, Do Kwon doesn't seem to be bothered about all the lawsuits against him, he is so self confident even in his Twitter post that he doesn't sound remorseful or feel any empathy towards investors.
Someone asked on his Twitter why he is not in jail yet. The guy is too self centered to care about any of this, I truly hope the law will do justice to this huge scam.
Terra was one of the top projects and heavily trusted but see what happened to investor's funds. This type of impunity is what regulations are after.

@OP Next time try indicate the source of your content.

i have to admit that he is an extravagance and very good at acting, his tweets show that he has never regretted or feared for what he did. he is trying to prove his innocence so there is no need to panic over those charges.
in its heyday, Terra had a market cap of 60 billion and I wonder how much he pocketed when Terra collapsed and even more confusing, despite being wanted by interpol, some country allows him to hide. the true power of money has kept him from being betrayed so far.

Yeah there isn't any solution if we look at it from the aspect of those who lost their funds getting it back, that is absolutely impossible, and i am pretty sure that those who were unfortunately victims of this know that, they only want to see Do Kwon answer to all the charges that has been filed against him, and thus he is definitely going to get punished because there's no way he is going to win.

Having said that, i actually hope there are a whole lot of investors who learnt from this unfortunate events that happened with Do Kwon and his scam coin, there will be many other similar projects that will come out in the future, and rather than people chasing after what will cause them loss, they should basically just invest in a long term project like Bitcoin.

How many cases already against DK? Is there any parties involve with this because obviously DK can’t do that alone. Well, this scenario is expected since many suddenly lose money where supposed it to be safe. DK have to have to deal with this, there’s no escape here and for sure there will be another case, this may be a case after case, a never ending problem for DK.

There should be other parties involved he is not the one running the TerraForm Labs soon we will have the names of his co accusers, the only positive side I saw on this disaster is investors will think deeper and will do a lot of research if there are flaws on the project they are investing, I have not invested on this Luna I just don't like the arrogance of Do Kwon, he think s that he is way better and his project is just too good to fail, he even treats those who questioned his projects as haters and poor people.

I so want to see Do Kwon pay for his incompetence.  He made lots of people lose huge amount of money and treat that as if it is nothing.  I think Do Kwon won't have any place to hide because the Terra Luna fiasco affects people around the globe.

Some of his staff are already in custody of South Korean authority. Do Kwon fled leaving his subordinate behind thinking he can escape the pursuit of the authority if he can manage to move out of the country.

What can you expect from that documentaried? For sure it's all about the negative side and if i'm of those who lose the money i wont expose such stories. Anyway this can be more interesting if they will add other scam incidents, there's a lot to tell.

DK already knew this will happen because it involves a lot of money. With this, he cannot defend anymore so better to admit it and compensate the losses. Imagine being wanted from many countries, that's stressful.
