It should have been sentenced long ago. Losing 4 billion dollars like this is really outrageous.

Archaeology tells us that the decline of great civilizations often begins with the collapse of trust. The story of Luna, in a sense, is a cautionary tale of digital archaeology.

15 years? I thought they could confiscate all assets directly. How many retail investors did this guy scam back in the day...
