The shadow of the 2022 bear market is finally gone. A U.S. court has sentenced Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon to 15 years in prison for orchestrating the $40B Terra collapse that nearly broke the crypto industry.
This chapter is closed. Permanently.
Why This Is Actually Bullish
1. The Industry Just Got a Clean Slate
Institutions don’t need hype they need accountability. Watching a high-profile bad actor face real consequences proves one thing: Crypto is growing up. Regulation plus enforcement equals legitimacy.
2. Terra Contagion Is Officially Dead
For years, “what if another Terra happens?” haunted every rally. That fear is gone. No more baggage. No more excuses. The market can now price assets based on fundamentals, not trauma.
Weekend Market Watch
Bitcoin ($BTC): Holding firm around $91,700, completely unfazed by the headlines.
Liquidity Check: With the Fed’s fresh liquidity injection kicking in yesterday, downside risk looks limited. The floor feels real-not imaginary.
Final Take
The system just took out the trash. Confidence is rising. Risk premiums are shrinking. And the road to $100K BTC just got a whole lot clearer.
Lesson of the cycle: Crime doesn’t pay. Patience does.
