Montenegro’s Supreme Court has ruled that Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon is eligible for extradition, according to a local source. The final decision now rests with the Minister of Justice, who is expected to sign the extradition order this week.

This decision clears the way for Kwon’s extradition to either South Korea or the United States, where he faces charges related to the May 2022 collapse of the Terra cryptocurrency ecosystem. The implosion of the Terra token and its associated stablecoin, Luna, wiped out around $40 billion in market value, causing huge losses for investors globally and becoming a defining event in the crypto industry.
