- SEC uncovers sneaky investor fund shenanigans. Classic move, right?
- Fake loan performance reports? Oh, the audacity! 😏
- Settlement drama: money back, penalties, and a lifetime ban from playing banker. Ouch.
So, picture this: Huynh Tran Quang Duy-yes, the big boss of MyConstant-has decided to cough up over $10 million because apparently, lying about where investor money goes is frowned upon. 🙈 The SEC claims he took those funds and bet them on TerraUSD like it was a Vegas slot machine. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. And now we’re all here shaking our heads. 🤦♀️
Between 2020 and 2022, Duy’s platform promised investors dreamy returns of up to 10% with “low risk.” Low risk?! Sweetheart, if only they’d known their cash was being funneled into TerraUSD-a coin that later nosedived faster than your confidence after a bad haircut. 💇♂️📉 Nearly $12 million vanished into thin air when TerraUSD collapsed in May 2022. Oopsie daisy!
From Loans to Lunacy: How $20 Million Got Lost in Crypto La-La Land 🎢
Duy managed to charm over 4,000 investors into handing over $20 million for his “collateralized crypto loans.” Collateralized? Ha! More like *confiscated*. Instead of sticking to the script, he siphoned off funds straight into his own crypto wallets and went shopping for TerraUSD without so much as a “Hey, can I borrow this?” 🛒💸
Oh, and let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: Duy allegedly splurged nearly half a million bucks of investor dough on himself. Meanwhile, poor investors were fed fake reports suggesting everything was A-OK. Lies upon lies upon LIES. 🕵️♂️💔
SEC Drops the Hammer: $10 Million Smackdown 👊💥
In true “payback’s a witch” fashion, Duy agreed to fork over $8.3 million in disgorgement (fancy word for giving stolen money back), plus another $1.5 million in interest, and a cool $750k civil penalty-all within 14 days. No admission of guilt, but also no repeat-offender privileges. You know what they say: once a gambler, always under SEC surveillance. 🔍👀
TerraUSD’s epic fail didn’t just burn MyConstant; it torched billions globally and left regulators sharpening their knives. It’s almost poetic justice… except nobody got poetry-they got lawsuits. 📉⚔️
Investor Dreams Shattered Faster Than a Dropped Phone 📱💔

MyConstant sold itself as the ultimate low-risk, high-reward fairy tale. But surprise! It turned out to be more Grimm Brothers than happily-ever-after. Investors who thought they were swimming in profit are now drowning in disappointment. 🏊♀️🔥
The SEC has stepped in like a financial superhero, recovering some of the lost loot to compensate victims through court-supervised payouts. Justice may be slow, but at least it’s wearing a cape. 🦸♂️💰
This whole debacle serves as a neon-sign warning to crypto companies everywhere: transparency isn’t optional, folks. And to investors? Maybe don’t trust anyone promising guaranteed riches without asking a few hundred questions first. Just saying. 😉📚
