South Korea’s Financial Watchdog Prioritizes Crypto Standards After Terra Crash

Authorities in South Korea have openly called for standard crypto regulations since the fall of Terra’s tokens in May 2022. The historical incident saw LUNA (now LUNA Classic) and TerraUSD fall to pennies.

Investors reportedly lost over $40 billion and crypto prices tanked as panic spread through the market. Terra’s crash has since become a rallying point for regulators across the globe calling for tighter crypto laws and policies.

There are also ongoing investigations into Terra founder Do Kwon, other Terraform Labs employees, and connected crypto exchanges.
