SARAJEVO A court in Montenegro has sentenced cryptocurrency entrepreneur Do Kwon, who is charged in the U.S. with a multibillion-dollar
fraud, and his ally to four months in prison for using forged passports, local newspaper Vijesti reported on Monday.
A South Korean national, Do Kwon is the former CEO of South Korea-based Terraform Labs, the company behind the stablecoin TerraUSD that collapsed in May 2022, roiling cryptocurrency markets.
He was detained in March along with Han Chang-joon, Terraform Labs' former finance officer, as they tried to board a flight to Dubai at the airport of Podgorica, Montenegro's capital, and charged with forging official documents.
