Hacktivist group Anonymous has set their sights on the Founder of Terraform Labs Do Kwon. In their newest video, posted on June 26th, they claimed that Kwon was single-handedly responsible for scamming investors out of billions of dollars and addressed him directly, saying: “there is no doubt that there are many more crimes to be discovered in your trail of destruction.”
Giving Attention to Terra’s crash
In their newest video, Anonymous made clear their opinion on Terra’s crash, which had a devastating effect on the entire crypto ecosystem. The video was posted on the Anonymous youtube channel, which has 287K subscribers. At press time, the video had 31,617 views.
In reference to the collapse of the Terra (LUNA) and TerraUSD (UST) ecosystem in May, the group determined that Do Kwon should be held fully responsible. Anonymous addressed Kwon directly, repeatedly reminding him of the long list of accusations levied against him, including cashing out $80 million each month from LUNA and UST before its collapse, and the previous crash of stablecoin Basis Cash, which was also founded by Kwon.
“Do Kwon, if you are listening, sadly, there is nothing that can be done to reverse the damage that you have done. At this point, the only thing that we can do is hold you accountable and make sure that you are brought to justice as soon as possible,” pledged the hacktivists.
“Anonymous is looking into Do Kwon’s entire history since he entered the crypto space to see what we can learn and bring to light,” the group stated. “There is no doubt that there are many more crimes to be discovered in your trail of destruction.”
Mixed Reactions from the Community
Despite outlining their apparent threat against Kwon, the video failed to reveal any new information on the Terra case that hasn’t already been covered by the media. Furthermore, the group did not speak on any next steps in bringing Do Kwon to justice.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the community has had mixed reactions to the video. While some commentators on YouTube and Reddit praised Anonymous for being the “Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) of today” in seeking justice for those affected, many raised doubts as to whether the group ever delivers on their promises.
Some even lambasted the video as childish: “Sorry, I can’t take anon seriously with random HTML tags floating around on his face,” a commenter said on Reddit. “I miss anonymous. Is this not just like watching the news? It’s basically just saying they are investigating this. Well so are a lot of people. I’m pretty sure this guy owns a computer, laptop phone, or even a server. Can u not break the passwords of anything anymore? Where are the real anonymous players? R.I.P.” commented another viewer on YouTube.
