South Korean news agency Yonhap reports that prosecutors are seeking an arrest warrant for Terraform Labs founder Daniel Shin. Yonhap says prosecutors accused Shin of making illegal profits when he sold $105 million of LUNA at a high market price without informing investors.
He is also accused of violating electronic commerce laws for using customer data from Chai, a separate company he ran, to promote Luna.
