Do Kwon Denies Bitcoin Transfer to Crypto Exchanges

Terra founder Do Kwon in a tweet on September 28 denied allegations of moving Bitcoin from LFG wallets to crypto exchanges KuCoin and OKX. Terra founder even claims that he hasn’t used KuCoin or OKX for over a year. He believes there is so much misinformation being spread against him.

Moreover, he confirms the funds of Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) and TerraForm Labs or any other entities have not been frozen.

“What has been probably the most surprising in all this is the amount of misinformation that gets spread. There is no cashout as alleged, i havent used KuCoin or Okex in at least the last year, and no funds of tfl, lfg or any other entities have been frozen.”

South Korean prosecutors earlier asked KuCoin and OKX to freeze $67 million Bitcoin linked to Do Kwon after finding fund transfers from LFG wallets. However, LFG in a tweet denied any Bitcoin or other token transfer since the Terra-LUNA crisis in May. Also, no new wallets have been created to transfer the funds.

“The LFG treasury’s BTC wallet is: bc1q9d4ywgfnd8h43da5tpcxcn6ajv590cg6d3tg6axemvljvt2k76zs50tv4q. LFG hasn’t created any new wallets or moved BTC or other tokens held by LFG since May 2022.

Prosecutors believe Terra founder Do Kwon has created a new wallet for LFG and allegedly transferred funds between the wallets and exchanges.
