Some South Korea-based crypto investors have filed criminal complaints against Do Kwon for alleged fraud. 

The crypto industry is battling a serious credibility crisis this month. The crash of TerraUSD (UST), a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, and its native token LUNA earlier this month bankrupted many investors in a matter of days and sent the crypto market into a tailspin. UST was meant to always be worth $1 but it collapsed to as low as 13 cents last week and then to 9 cents this week. The spectacular crash has led to a huge backlash from angry investors against the founder and CEO of the Terra blockchain, Do Kwon.

He has criticised investors for putting their money into rival stablecoin projects as well as lashing out at anyone who questioned his credentials. “Bow before the king,” he said in the tweet.

Kwon has also called UST and Luna naysayers “poor”, adding, “I don't debate the poor”.
