Seeing that verdict, to be honest, I was a bit stunned—just 15 years? Is that really enough?

As someone who experienced the Luna collapse in 2022, I still remember how it felt when my account balance hit zero. Ten thousand dollars might not seem like an astronomical amount to many, but it was money I had saved up for a long time. At that time, everyone was saying algorithmic stablecoins were the future. And what happened? They were gone overnight.

Now, looking at this sentencing, I feel a complex mix of emotions. Those who designed the entire scam and destroyed countless families’ hopes, are they really only paying this much? The entire crypto market lost hundreds of billions of dollars because of this, and many retail investors like me lost everything.

15 years... maybe that’s already heavy for them, but for us victims, we lost more than just money—we lost trust in this industry.
