Goodbye to gold in the US - Germany, France, and the Netherlands pressure the United States to recover their gold reserves amid growing financial tensions

Goodbye to SSDI benefits if you exceed this income threshold—the new limit of $1,620 per month is now in effect in the United States​

Europe wants its gold back, yes. Europe has started to doubt the stability of our country. For years, the United States has been guarding European gold, but not just a bit of gold… thousands of tons of European gold are stored in the United States Federal Reserve. Now, governments like the German or the Italian one want their gold back. Why now? Because they are not very confident in Donald Trump’s mandate, nor that he could use that gold (which does not belong to him) as a political weapon. So, faced with this scenario in which there are three possible wars open, countries want to recover their gold reserves

Countries may face difficulties in recovering their gold reserves from the US, potentially leaving them with little hope of reclaiming their assets.

Do Kwon, the South Korean cryptocurrency entrepreneur behind two digital currencies that lost an estimated $40 billion in 2022, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to two U.S. charges of conspiracy to defraud and wire fraud.

Kwon, 33, who co-founded Singapore-based Terraform Labs and developed the TerraUSD and Luna currencies, entered the plea at a court hearing in New York before U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer.

Do Kwon had pleaded not guilty in January to a nine-count indictment charging him with securities fraud, wire fraud, commodities fraud and money laundering conspiracy.

Accused of misleading investors in 2021 about TerraUSD — a so-called stablecoin designed to maintain a value of $1 — Kwon pleaded guilty to the two counts under an agreement with the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s office, which brought the charges.

He faces up to 25 years in prison when Engelmayer sentences him on December 11, though prosecutor Kimberly Ravener said the government had agreed to advocate for a prison term of no more than 12 years provided he accepts responsibility for his crimes.

Kwon is one of several cryptocurrency moguls to face federal charges after a slump in digital token prices in 2022 prompted the collapse of a number of companies.

Prosecutors alleged that when TerraUSD slipped below its $1 peg in May 2021, he told investors a computer algorithm known as “Terra Protocol” had restored the coin’s value.




Instead, they said, he arranged for a high-frequency trading firm to secretly buy millions of dollars of the token to artificially prop up its price.

Prosecutors said that false claim and others drove retail and institutional investors to buy Terraform products and boost the value of Luna — a more traditional token that fluctuated in value but was closely linked to TerraUSD — to $50 billion by the spring of 2022.

In court, Kwon apologized for his conduct.

“I made false and misleading statements about why it regained its peg by failing to disclose a trading firm’s role in restoring that peg,” Kwon said. “What I did was wrong.”

Kwon agreed in 2024 to pay $80 million as a civil fine and be banned from crypto transactions as part of a $4.55 billion settlement he and Terraform reached with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Kwon has been detained since his extradition from Montenegro late last year.

He also faces charges in South Korea. As part of the deal, prosecutors will not oppose Kwon’s potential application to be transferred abroad after serving half his U.S. sentence, Ravener said.

Crypto mogul Do Kwon pleads guilty to fraud for $40bn market collapse​

Terraform Labs co-founder, pleading guilty to two charges, was accused of misleading investors in 2021 about TerraUSD


Do Kwon, the South Korean entrepreneur behind two cryptocurrencies that lost an estimated $40bn in 2022 and caused the market to implode, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to two US charges of conspiracy to defraud and wire fraud.

Kwon, 33, who co-founded Singapore-based Terraform Labs and developed the TerraUSD and Luna currencies, entered the plea at a federal court hearing in New York. He had pleaded not guilty in January to a nine-count indictment charging him with securities fraud, wire fraud, commodities fraud and money-laundering conspiracy.


Accused of misleading investors in 2021 about TerraUSD – a so-called stablecoin designed to maintain a value of $1 – Kwon pleaded guilty to the two counts under an agreement with the Manhattan US attorney’s office, which brought the charges.

He faces up to 25 years in prison when Engelmayer sentences him on 11 December, though prosecutor Kimberly Ravener said the government had agreed to advocate for a prison term of no more than 12 years, provided he accepts responsibility for his crimes. He has been detained since his extradition from Montenegro late last year.

Kwon is one of several cryptocurrency moguls to face federal charges after a slump in digital token prices in 2022 prompted the collapse of a number of companies. Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of the US’s largest crypto exchange, FTX, was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2024.
