📣 Verdict for Do Kwon: what it means for Terra ($LUNA )

In December 2025, Do Kwon, the former co-founder of Terraform Labs, was sentenced to 15 years in prison for fraud related to the collapse of Luna (#TerraUSD ) in 2022, which resulted in a loss of about $40 billion for investors and became one of the key moments of the crypto winter that year.

In the last two weeks before the verdict, #LUNA demonstrated significant volatility. The price increased by over 200–250%, partly due to speculative demand and activity from traders waiting for legal clarity and technical updates from the network.

This short-term growth was also supported by updates to the network v2.18.0 and positive technical signals. But analysts warn: such jumps are often driven by wash trading and low liquidity, rather than fundamental changes in the project.

🔮 Forecast: the verdict for Do Kwon may have a mixed effect on LUNA. On one hand, legal clarity could alleviate some uncertainty, contributing to the stabilization of sentiment. On the other hand, the long-term reputation of the network still carries the shadow of the former collapse, which may deter large institutional investments.
