Do Kwon Gets 15 Years, 10 Less Than SBF—Here’s Why

Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison on Thursday for orchestrating a $40 billion cryptocurrency fraud—a sentence notably lighter than the 25 years handed to FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) last year, despite Kwon’s fraud causing nearly four times the financial damage.

Wintermute: Short-term Risk Assets May Consolidate, Buying Interest Yet to Clearly Return

Of the 18 officials, 9 expect at least one rate hike this year, and 17 believe that inflation risks are skewed to the upside. The market subsequently adjusted its expectations, with the probability of a rate hike in December rising from 24% a month ago to 77%, indicating that the Fed is once again putting fighting inflation at the core of its policy. On the geopolitical front, the signing of the Iran agreement, originally scheduled for June 19th, was unexpectedly suspended.

The significant gains in the U.S. stock market and the drop in oil prices were largely based on the expectation of reaching an agreement, and now the market needs to reassess the previously diminished geopolitical risk premium. The crypto market was the first to complete the risk repricing. Although Strategy disclosed the purchase of 1587 BTC, alleviating market concerns about its selling pressure, Wintermute believes that ETF and institutional buying interest has not significantly picked up. In the short term, the market focus will shift to U.S. PCE data and the progress of the Middle East negotiations. Until there is an improvement in fund flows, risk assets may continue to experience a range-bound trend.
