從黑山引渡後，Do Kwon 將在美國法院面臨刑事詐欺指控

Terraform Labs 是 TerraUSD USTC/USD 和 Luna LUNC/USD 的孵化器，共同創辦人 Do Kwon 從蒙特內哥羅引渡後將在美國法院面臨刑事詐欺指控。

Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon is set to face criminal fraud charges in a U.S. court following his extradition from Montenegro.

Terraform Labs 聯合創始人 Do Kwon 從黑山引渡後，將在美國法院面臨刑事詐欺指控。

Kwon is expected to appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert Lehrburger in a Manhattan federal court on Thursday afternoon, according to the South China Morning Post.

據《南華早報》報道，預計權將於週四下午在曼哈頓聯邦法院接受美國治安法官羅伯特·萊爾伯格 (Robert Lehrburger) 的審訊。

The U.S. extradition request was filed in June 2023, following Kwon’s arrest in April. The U.S. прокуратура alleges that Kwon and others engaged in a "fraudulent scheme" to sell unregistered securities and commodities, resulting in an estimated $40 billion loss.

權於 4 月被捕後，美國於 2023 年 6 月提出引渡請求。美國《報》稱，Kwon 等人參與了出售未註冊證券和商品的“欺詐計劃”，造成估計 400 億美元的損失。

Kwon has denied any wrongdoing related to the charges. He is facing multiple counts of commodities fraud, conspiracy, securities fraud and wire fraud.

權否認有任何與這些指控相關的不當行為。他面臨商品詐欺、共謀、證券詐欺和電匯詐欺等多項指控。

The extradition marks the end of a competing legal battle between the U.S. and South Korea, both of which had filed extradition requests for Kwon.

這次引渡標誌著美國和韓國之間的法律鬥爭的結束，兩國都提出了引渡權的請求。

Montenegro Minister of Justice Bojan Božović ultimately authorized Kwon’s transfer to the U.S., citing factors such as the gravity of the alleged offenses and the sequence of extradition requests.

黑山司法部長博揚·博佐維奇最終批准將權某移交給美國，理由是涉嫌犯罪的嚴重性和引渡請求的順序等因素。

In June 2024, Kwon agreed to pay an $80 million civil fine and was banned from cryptocurrency transactions as part of a $4.55 billion settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

2024 年 6 月，作為與美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 達成的 45.5 億美元和解協議的一部分，Kwon 同意支付 8,000 萬美元的民事罰款，並被禁止進行加密貨幣交易。

The SEC alleged that Kwon and Terraform Labs misled investors about the stability of the TerraUSD token, which was designed to be pegged to the U.S. dollar.

美國證券交易委員會聲稱，Kwon 和 Terraform Labs 在 TerraUSD 代幣的穩定性方面誤導了投資者，該代幣旨在與美元掛鉤。

The token lost its peg and collapsed in May 2022, along with the Luna token, wiping out billions of dollars in investor funds.

該代幣與 Luna 代幣一起於 2022 年 5 月失去錨定並崩潰，損失了數十億美元的投資者資金。

The case has drawn significant attention in the crypto world, with the TerraUSD token experiencing a 4% surge following news of Kwon’s extradition.

此案引起了加密世界的極大關注，在 Kwon 引渡的消息傳出後，TerraUSD 代幣價格飆升了 4%。

Kwon’s legal troubles follow other high-profile convictions and guilty pleas in the crypto industry this year.

繼今年加密貨幣行業其他備受矚目的定罪和認罪之後，Kwon 也陷入了法律困擾。

Notably, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was convicted and sentenced for multiple fraud charges, while Celsius Network founder Alex Mashinsky pleaded guilty to fraud charges related to the collapse of the crypto lending platform.

值得注意的是，FTX 創辦人 Sam Bankman-Fried 因多項詐欺指控被定罪並判刑，而攝氏網路創始人 Alex Mashinsky 則承認與加密借貸平台崩潰相關的詐欺指控。
