“I can’t reveal the details, but it was a conversation history where CEO Kwon specifically ordered price manipulation.”

Meanwhile, Kwon claimed that he hasn’t seen any copy of the arrest warrant from Korean authorities as claimed in the media. He said this during an interview with Laura Shin of Unchained.

“We haven’t seen a copy of the arrest warrant, so every piece of data that we’re consuming regarding this is from the media, which as you can imagine in a situation like this, is kind of hectic. There’s a lot of contradictory information.”
