Anonymous Takes Aim at Do Kwon
The world of cryptocurrency has seen its fair share of drama, but none quite as sensational as the fallout from the collapse of Terra’s ecosystems, LUNA and UST. Buckle up, because just when we thought things couldn’t get wilder, the hacktivist group Anonymous has waded into the fray, promising to bring co-founder Do Kwon to justice.
The Allegations Towering Over Kwon
In a recently released video, Anonymous laid out a controversial laundry list of allegations against Kwon. Among the claims, they allege that he was cashing out a staggering $80 million each month leading up to the catastrophic collapse. If you think your budgeting skills are impressive, remember that this is a level of financial gymnastics that most of us can only dream of!
They didn’t stop there, either. The group accused Kwon of contributing to the downfall of the stablecoin Basis Cash, even alleging he operated under the pseudonym “Rick Sanchez”. Apparently, when it comes to cryptos, ‘Rick’ might not be the best of names to be associated with.
“Do Kwon, if you are listening, sadly, there is nothing that can be done to reverse the damage that you have done…”
Riding the Justice Wave
Anonymous is not just out for a good time; they’re on a mission to look into Kwon’s entire history within the crypto sphere. Yes, you heard that right—they’re playing detective, hoping to unearth a trove of alleged misdeeds. With their commitment to “hold you accountable,” it seems like Kwon might want to invest in a good lawyer, or maybe just a good VPN.
Community Reactions: A Mixed Bag
The reaction from the crypto community has been diverse, to say the least. Some users are singing the praises of Anonymous, dubbing them the “Robinhood of today.” Who knew vigilante hackers could elicit such a warm and fuzzy feeling? On the other side of the coin, however, skepticism is rife. Reddit users have critiqued the group for their perceived empty threats, with one commenter cynically noting:
“Would expect them to have uncovered something but it’s nothing more than, well nothing.”
Kwon’s Real Worries
While Anonymous is making headlines with their fiery declaration, Do Kwon might have more pressing concerns. Currently facing multiple investigations from South Korean authorities, including nefarious allegations of embezzling Bitcoin from Terraform Labs’ coffers, Kwon could be dealing with the real Grim Reapers of Yeouido—South Korea’s notorious financial crimes unit.
To add to the pressure, they also recently barred Terraform Labs employees from leaving the country and imposed a hefty $78 million tax evasion penalty. Kwon might be wishing right now that it was just the hackers he had to worry about!
