Crypto Victims Relieved – Or Too Late? What Operation Atlantic Really Means

Operation Atlantic is a major UK-US-Canada law enforcement initiative targeting crypto fraud and approval-phishing scams, involving agencies like the UK's National Crime Agency and the U.S. Secret Service, along with private partners such as Chainalysis. The operation aims to identify victims and compromised wallets in real time, freeze illicit funds before laundering, and generate investigative leads. Initial results include over 20,000 identified victims, more than 20,000 flagged wallet addresses, and over $12 million in frozen suspected scam proceeds. Globally, $45 million in stolen crypto has been identified. Approval phishing scams trick users into signing malicious transactions, allowing direct wallet draining. The operation highlights growing efforts to combat these rapidly evolving crypto crimes.

Trust Wallet Reveals Number of Victims from the Hack and the Compensation Problem

Trust Wallet CEO Eowyn Chen revealed that last week's hack affected over 2,500 user accounts. However, the service has received approximately 5,000 compensation claims, indicating a significant number of fraudulent or duplicate requests, which is slowing down the payout process. The hack occurred on the night of December 26 due to a vulnerability in the browser extension version 2.68. An update (v2.69) was released, and the company promised to cover the estimated $7 million in losses. The verification of claims is being conducted alongside the technical investigation, prioritizing accuracy over speed. Trust Wallet is working with Google to obtain Chrome audit logs and is conducting a detailed security check on remote devices. In a related context, a recent Chainalysis report noted that 2025 has seen over 158,000 personal wallet compromises, resulting in $713 million in losses.

Trial 1314 Days Late: Mastermind Behind $40 Billion Stablecoin Collapse Sentenced to 15 Years

The trial of Do Kwon, the mastermind behind the $40 billion Terra (LUNA) and UST stablecoin collapse, concluded on December 11, 2025, with a 15-year prison sentence. After 1,314 days since the catastrophic crash, Kwon was convicted of orchestrating an "epic, generational-scale fraud" that wiped out life savings for over a million victims and triggered a crypto market crisis, including the fall of FTX. Despite his defense pleading for a five-year term, citing arrogance rather than greed as motive, the judge dismissed it as absurd and deemed the prosecution’s recommended 12 years too lenient. Kwon, who had initially pleaded not guilty, eventually admitted to two counts of conspiracy and wire fraud in August, agreeing to forfeit over $19 million in assets. Victim impact statements revealed devastating losses—homes, retirement funds, and education savings vanished. Many described being misled by Kwon’s false assurances and cult-like influence. In a rare apology, Kwon expressed remorse, acknowledging his "arrogance" and the pain he caused. He may serve half his sentence in the U.S. before potential transfer to South Korea, where he faces additional charges.

Terraform Co-Founder Receives 15-Years Prison Sentence

Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon has been sentenced to 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to wire fraud and conspiracy.

The judge considered victim impact statements, including one individual who became homeless after losing $81,000. The sentence was deemed necessary due to the severity and deliberate nature of the fraud. Kwon expressed remorse and may serve part of his sentence in South Korea, where he could face additional charges. His case is compared to other high-profile crypto fraud sentences.

Terraform co-founder sentenced to 15 years in prison after guilty plea

Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon has been sentenced to 15 years in prison by a U.S. court after pleading guilty to wire fraud and conspiracy. The collapse of Terraform in 2022 wiped out an estimated $40 billion from the crypto market. Judge Paul Engelmayer called the fraud "unusually serious," stating that Kwon "publicly lied to the market" for years. Kwon expressed remorse and requested to serve his sentence in South Korea, where he may face additional charges and up to 40 more years in prison. Approximately 16,500 victims were affected, with several testifying about severe financial losses during the sentencing. Kwon is the latest high-profile crypto executive to be convicted, following cases like FTX's Sam Bankman-Fried and Celsius' Alex Mashinsky.
