Terra/LUNA collapse: what Singapore investors can still do
The Terra/LUNA collapse erased roughly $40bn in a week and hit thousands of investors in Singapore. Most losses ran through platforms that were never registered with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) — and that fact is the foundation of every recovery route that still exists today.
How the losses actually happened
Most Singapore victims did not lose money on LUNA directly. They were talked into "stablecoin yield" positions by promoters on social media, then moved funds through platforms that held no licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
Because PayNow and FAST transfers settle instantly and irreversibly, funds moved through two or three wallets within hours. The paper trail still exists on-chain — but every day of delay makes exchange-side freezing harder.
What MAS said — and why it matters
Warnings issued around the collapse named unregistered platforms soliciting Singapore investors. If the platform you used appeared in those warnings, that document is evidence: it shows the operator knew it was operating outside the rules.
Singapore victims should act within hours: under the Shared Responsibility Framework, banks and telcos face duties to intervene, but a fast police report anchors the case.
Recovery routes that still apply
Three tracks remain open: a report to ScamShield and the Singapore Police Force, a written claim through the Shared Responsibility Framework (SRF) duties, and on-chain tracing to identify where funds pooled. Cases succeed when all three run in parallel, not in sequence.
Independent case review — like the service our specialists provide — starts by mapping which track your evidence supports best, before any money is spent on tracing.
Frequently asked questions
Can I still recover LUNA losses in Singapore?
Often yes. The token's price is irrelevant to recovery — what matters is where the funds went and whether the platform or promoter misled you. Tracing and bank claims do not expire quickly.
Do I need to report if I already lost the money?
Yes. A report with ScamShield and the Singapore Police Force creates the official record that banks, exchanges and MAS all rely on when a case is reviewed.
