Do Kwon requests 5-year sentence in the US, could face 40 years in South Korea

Do Kwon, the co-founder of Terraform Labs, seeks a US court’s leniency for a 5-year sentence due to his pivotal role in the Terra ecosystem collapse.

Despite a plea deal in the US, Kwon faces 40 years in South Korea stemming from similar accusations related to the Terra crash.

Having spent almost three years in custody, including harsh conditions, Kwon highlights this in his plea, contending longer sentencing would be unjust.
