Ex-Terraform LabsKwon's Fraud Trial Postponed to March

The trial delay allows for Kwon's extradition from Montenegro, where he is currently held on a prior conviction.

  • Do Kwon, former CEO of Terraform Labs, is facing a jury trial on fraud claims related to the collapse of algorithmic stablecoin Terra USD.
  • The trial, originally scheduled for January 29, has been postponed to March 25 to allow for Kwon's extradition from Montenegro.
  • Kwon's lawyers have stated that he will not make additional requests for adjournment of the trial date, even if he is not able to attend the trial on the new date.
  • Kwon has been held in Montenegro since his arrest in March last year for attempting to travel with forged documents.
  • Last month, U.S. District Court Judge Jed Rakoff ruled that Terraform and Kwon violated U.S. law by failing to register TerraUSD and Luna.
