👨⚖️Do Kwon Pleads Not Guilty to Terra Ecosystem Collapse During US Cryptocurrency Trial
After a lengthy battle, Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon was granted extradition to the United States by Montenegrin authorities in late December. On January 2, Do Kwon appeared in court in the United States but pleaded not guilty to fraud charges related to the $40 billion collapse of the TerraUSD (UST) stablecoin.
Do Kwon was questioned by U.S. District Judge Robert Lehrburger in Manhattan and agreed to remain in detention without bail.
Currently, Do Kwon faces nine charges, including wire, securities, and commodities fraud, all related to his role in bringing down the company after the price of Terraform Labs tokens LUNA and UST plummeted.
Back in March 2023, Do Kwon was arrested in Montenegro for attempting to travel using a fake passport. Since then, he has remained in Montenegro while U.S. and South Korean authorities have been fighting over who to charge him. Both countries have accused him of fraud, with South Korea seeking his extradition due to his citizenship.
Do Kwon had tried to avoid extradition to the United States through legal means, as South Korea generally imposes lighter penalties for financial crimes. However, the Constitutional Court of Montenegro rejected his appeal on December 26, and a few days later, the Montenegrin Minister of Justice signed an extradition order. On December 31, Montenegrin police handed Do Kwon over to US authorities at Podgorica International Airport.
Now, New York prosecutors accuse Do Kwon of misleading investors about the capabilities and adoption rate of the Terra blockchain, which directly led to the catastrophic collapse of the platform.
Notably, the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office, which successfully prosecuted FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried last year, is also handling Do Kwon's case.
Do Kwon was previously found liable by a U.S. jury in a civil fraud case brought by the U.S. SEC and agreed to a $4.47 billion settlement, after which Terraform Labs had to file for bankruptcy.
Do Kwon’s lawyer declined to comment after the hearing. Meanwhile, the next court session is scheduled for January 8, and this case could set the stage for a high-profile cryptocurrency trial in the Southern District of New York.
As Do Kwon’s case continues to unfold in court, it is not only his personal battle, but also the focus of close attention from the entire cryptocurrency world.

🌖 Terra Collapse May Have Impacted a Million Victims, Feds Allege in Do Kwon Case
The Terra ecosystem collapse in 2022 didn't make as many headlines as #Ftx❓ , but the total number of victims could exceed 1 million, according to new court documents.
The documents filed this week allege that the number of victims of disgraced crypto mogul, Terraform Labs founder #DoKwon , is “difficult to precisely quantify.”
Kwon last week pleaded not guilty in a New York court to U.S. criminal charges including fraud over the collapse of the Terra crypto ecosystem. His crypto project went up in smoke in 2022, leaving a $40 billion black hole and many investors out of pocket.
“Given the number of potential victims in this case, the government respectfully submits that it is impracticable to give individualized notice to each potential victim,” a Monday court document read.
It added that the government believes that the number of victims “exceeds hundreds of thousands of individuals and entities, and potentially totals more than 1 million.”
Kwon founded the crypto ecosystem Terra, which had the flagship $LUNA
token and TerraUSD (UST) algorithmic stablecoin as its main products. Investors used it as a gateway into the world of decentralized finance, or DeFi, and LUNA quickly became one of the most valuable crypto coins on the market.
But the UST stablecoin couldn’t keep its stable peg to the U.S. dollar, and the entire ecosystem collapsed, wiping its market cap out very quickly.
Authorities now allege that Kwon conned investors into a sham project to enrich himself. Feds in both the U.S. and Korea have hit him with criminal charges. In the U.S., Kwon is facing nine criminal charges, including securities, wire, and commodities fraud, plus conspiracy to commit money laundering.
“Behind the scenes, core Terraform products did not work as Kwon advertised, and were manipulated to create the illusion of a functioning and decentralized financial system in order to lure investors,” the Monday document read.
Terra collapsed ahead of FTX’s own bankruptcy in 2022. FTX, once a huge crypto brand that allowed users to buy and sell digital coins and tokens, quickly collapsed due to criminal mismanagement.
Following a much-publicized criminal trial, co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried is now serving a 25-year sentence for his part in the collapse of his crypto company. His attorneys have appealed the judgment, claiming an unfair trial.

Zack Guzman, who announced that Trump's crypto guru David Sacks will join his team, is closely following the Do Kwon case.
He has been aware of the process since the first day of the LUNA/UST collapse. After today's hearing, he shared an important detail.
Following the one-month extension of the decision hearing; "The race for a pardon from Trump has been extended for another month," he said.
Will Do Kwon benefit from Trump's pardon? We don't know. However, we believe there are significant details beneath Zack Guzman's message.

The real test for $USTC will begin soon. With the market's return, we will also see the potential of #LUNC and #USTC.
We see that the manipulations attempted in USTC have so far been left behind and have fallen off the agenda. These manipulations and speculations will continue. Since there is no real leader in the Terra Classic chain, we will frequently encounter such situations.
The lawsuit of TFL with the SEC is nearing its end. We are not far from significant burns. We will see what will happen with the process related to LFG's funds. At this point, we cannot say anything definitive.
There is the subject of Do Kwon. There will be a conference in April, and the collapse of Terra will be attempted to be resolved in this conference hearing. A report will be produced. Depending on the evidence that emerges at this conference, Do Kwon's fraud case will take shape. We are sure that Do Kwon is not a fraudster, but it is also true that he is very culpable...
As a result, Do Kwon's process will extend until January 2026, but no decision made by Trump regarding crypto penalties will come as a surprise. These decisions will set a precedent for Do Kwon as well and provide an advantage.

The Terra teams know everything about cryptocurrencies. If they hadn't been attacked, they would have launched a blockchain that could surpass Ethereum. They have seen both the best and the worst...
They will definitely showcase this experience. After the collapse, CZ made offers to these teams, but these developers did not abandon Terra.

Do Kwon’s April 10 Hearing Could Mark a Turning Point for Terra Classic (LUNC) and TerraClassicUSD (
April 10, 2025 – A pivotal day looms for the Terra Classic ($LUNC ) and TerraClassicUSD ($USTC ) communities, as Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon is scheduled to appear at a U.S. court hearing that could significantly influence the ongoing legal proceedings surrounding the 2022 collapse of the Terra ecosystem. The outcome of this hearing may not only determine the trajectory of Kwon’s legal case but also have lasting implications for the future of the Terra Classic network.
Legal Developments: Proceedings Under Scrutiny
The U.S. District Court in New York had previously postponed Kwon’s hearing at the request of federal prosecutors. However, recent reports suggest that further delays may be imminent, as authorities are actively gathering new evidence, potentially affecting the timeline and scope of the trial.
Investor Compensation: $442 Million Relief Fund in Motion
In a parallel development, Terraform Labs continues to address investor losses stemming from the 2022 LUNA and UST collapse. The company has allocated up to $442 million for compensation efforts.
To be eligible for compensation, claimants must provide proof of holding LUNA or UST during the time of the collapse. This is typically done by retrieving transaction histories from the platforms where the tokens were held. Notably, even users who received post-collapse LUNA airdrops qualify for the compensation, as they are considered affected parties.
The compensation program is open globally, without geographic or exchange-based restrictions.
Do Kwon’s Legal Status: Facing Fraud Charges
Kwon currently faces nine fraud-related charges in the United States, in connection with the estimated $60 billion collapse of the Terra ecosystem. He has pleaded not guilty, and his trial is scheduled to begin on January 26, 2026, with pretrial motions due by July 1, 2025.
Following his extradition from Montenegro in December 2023, Kwon remains in the U.S. as he prepares for trial.
Regulatory Climate: Crypto Policy and Political Influence
Amid the unfolding legal narrative, broader crypto regulation has re-entered the spotlight. Speculation has intensified following former President Donald Trump’s recent decision to pardon the three BitMEX co-founders—Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed—previously convicted of money laundering.
This development is widely seen as a potential indication of a more favorable regulatory approach to cryptocurrency under a possible future Trump administration. Within this context, some industry observers suggest that, if cleared, Do Kwon could still play a significant role in shaping digital finance policy—particularly given his early vision for decentralized finance and algorithmic stablecoins.
Looking Ahead: A Path Toward Redemption?
As both legal and financial proceedings inch toward resolution, optimism is cautiously emerging within the Terra community. The resolution of ongoing lawsuits and the distribution of compensation could pave the way for a renewed chapter for the Terra Classic chain—one grounded in greater transparency, community trust, and regulatory alignment.

Trump signing the SilkRoad founder amnesty decision and the possibility of issuing a general amnesty for crypto fines brought Do Kwon to mind...
Some betting sites have opened bets for many crypto fined people. Among these people is FTX CEO SBF. However, Do Kwon's name is not on this list.
Journalist Zack Guzman, who conducted the only interview with Do Kwon after the LUNA collapse, also drew attention to this issue and said that he was surprised that Do Kwon was not on this list.
We should not pay much attention to the names mentioned by betting sites. Do Kwon has not been sentenced yet. For this reason, we find it strange that an amnesty is being discussed, but the precedents will also directly affect the Do Kwon case.
#LUNC , #USTC and#LUNAinvestors are closely following the process. We think that Do Kwon's lawyers will also show these decisions as precedents...
Maybe they wanted to extend the case for this reason. Time will tell everything.

Do Kwon Released from Montenegro Prison as Extradition Verdict Still Pending
Do Kwon, co-founder of Terraform Labs, has been released from prison in Montenegro while the extradition proceedings regarding his request to be extradited to the USA and South Korea are still ongoing, according to a report by Bloomberg citing officials from the prison system.
Doubts Surrounding Kwon's Extradition Decision:
His recent decision to be extradited to South Korea has been challenged by the top prosecutor of Montenegro. Recently, it has come to light that the highest prosecutor's office in Montenegro has transferred this case for review to the Supreme Court, citing irregularities.
Arrest of Do Kwon and the Collapse of the Terra Project:
Do Kwon was arrested in Montenegro in March 2023 when he was caught with a fake Costa Rican passport while attempting to travel to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Kwon was the architect of the failed crypto project TerraUSD stablecoin, which experienced a collapse along with LUNA, another token from the Terra project.
Extradition Decision and Investigation:
Both the USA and South Korea have requested Kwon's extradition, but the Minister of Justice of Montenegro favors extradition to South Korea. This decision has been contested by the top prosecutor of Montenegro. South Korean authorities are now actively seeking to prosecute Do Kwon for his alleged frauds and tax evasion.
Do Kwon has denied the accusations, claiming that the $40 billion collapse of the Terra ecosystem was a result of market forces and does not indicate any criminal activity.

This decision has been contested by the top prosecutor of Montenegro. South Korean authorities are now actively seeking to prosecute Do Kwon for his alleged frauds and tax evasion.
Do Kwon has denied the accusations, claiming that the $40 billion collapse of the Terra ecosystem was a result of market forces and does not indicate any criminal activity.
