Hiding a $50 million hack for years by falsifying documents—this is the shocking criminal allegation that Thailand’s SEC has just brought against Bitkub, the country’s largest exchange.

Although the damages from the 2021 incident have been addressed, document fraud to bypass regulators by two former directors has pulled this exchange—now operating with a volume of over $500 million—into a serious legal spiral. The case file has now been handed over to investigating police.

The impact of this news doesn’t stop at one country. It casts a cold splash of water on the confidence of regional capital flows and shows that the legal clampdown is tightening like never before. “Cracks” from the past of centralized platforms could be exposed at any time.

As a trader, the hard-earned lesson is: never underestimate systemic risk from exchanges. Always diversify where you store your assets and prioritize platforms with high transparency and strong liquidity. Do your own thorough research before making any decisions.

📊 Bitkub holds 820 billion $LUNC 💡

That is 12.72% of total supply worth $43.3 million USD across 26 wallets. Now officially reported to CoinMarketCap. 👀

That number alone is worth paying attention to as a LUNC investor. Here is the full picture right now.

The Thai SEC just filed a criminal complaint against Bitkub Online and two former directors for reporting false information during a cyber incident in May 2021. During that attack, approximately 1.7 billion THB ($50+ million USD) worth of customer digital assets across 16 tokens were stolen.

The SEC found that Bitkub failed to accurately reflect the hack in their daily liquidity reports filed with regulators between 10th May and 30th October 2021, effectively concealing the incident.

Two former directors who signed those reports are now personally named in the complaint alongside the company. The case now moves to police investigation, then prosecution, then court. 📋

I will be honest. This gives me some concern given the size of their LUNC reserves. 👀

That said, here are two things LUNC investors specifically need to know.

🔹 Bitkub has stated that all user assets were fully restored. The company used executive funds to buy back every stolen asset before the 31st October 2021 replacement date. No customer lost funds.

🔹 This incident happened in May 2021. Bitkub did not list LUNA until around late April 2022. This means zero LUNA was involved in or affected by this hack.

Note that Bitkub still uses the $LUNA ticker for Luna Classic and does not list LUNA v2.

The legal issue here is about disclosure to regulators, not about missing customer funds. Stay informed and watch how this develops. 👀
