Terra and Do Kwon Moving Crypto Worth Millions After Arrest

Dan Seong-han, Director at the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors’ Office, on June 8 said Terra co-founder Do Kwon or an affiliate has transferred crypto assets worth $29 million.

“We’re assuming that Do Kwon, or someone under his direction, took out the amount and moved it to another wallet, not to Sygnum, and cashed it out somewhere else.”

Korean prosecutors are also tracking to determine the whereabouts of crypto assets transferred from a crypto wallet related to Luna Foundation Guard (LFG). Moreover, Dan Seong-han said investigations have revealed that Do Kwon and its affiliates still hold over $13 million at Swiss bank Sygnum Bank AG. Prosecutors have indicted 10 people including Terra co-founder Daniel Shin on the basis of Terra investigations and violating laws.

The crypto assets being tracked by South Korean authorities are in addition to 10,000 Bitcoin transferred by Terraform Labs and Do Kwon to a Swiss bank account, which was mentioned in the US SEC complaint in February.

In April, Do Kwon cash out about $100 million in “fiat currency” from the Swiss bank. More than 70% of it was transferred to Kim & Chang law firm for paying legal fees.

CoinGape Media reported in May that Do Kwon withdraw 2.8 billion won ($2.15 million) worth of digital assets and Terraform Labs transferred 1.8 million Convex Finance (CVX) tokens worth nearly $8.7 million.
