> U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer

Same judge who recently ordered the unsealing of the Epstein grand jury records.

>Kwon agreed in 2024 to pay $80 million as a civil fine and be banned from crypto transactions

Being banned from transacting cryptocurrency seems overly harsh. Like how Samy Kamkar was banned from using the internet. You can't really live a normal life without internet access anymore.

It seems like it could become overly harsh.

Probably not in his lifetime.
