The Terra ecosystem imploded in May, evaporating $60 billion in value, after which Kwon faced charges of violating capital markets laws in South Korea.
Having departed his native country for Singapore, Kwon denied reports that he was on the run, despite Interpol issuing a "red notice" for his arrest. He claimed he had moved to Singapore before the collapse of the Terra ecosystem.
