The cryptocurrency industry seems to be experiencing more unrest daily. With the new addition of the Three Arrows Capital (3AC), the problems seem to be continuously growing.
A very recent update on the Voyage Digital Ltd website shows that its daily withdrawal cap has been lowered from 25,000 USD to 10,000 USD. This happened just after detailing Voyage’s revelation to struggling hedge fund Three Arrows Capital past this week.
After the company disclosed more than 650 million USD exposure in the faltering Three Arrows Capital on Wednesday, Voyager Shares fell by more than sixty per cent. Voyager’s overall exposure to Three Arrows Capital comprises 350 million USD Coin (USDC) and 15,250 Bitcoin, or almost 310 million USD.
The announcement comes after the business said on Wednesday that its subsidiary could alert Three Arrows Capital Ltd of a default if the Bitcoin hedge fund failed to repay its debt.
In order to get the money back from the hedge fund, Voyager is also talking about legal options, according to the statement. Voyager entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with Alameda Ventures Ltd. earlier this month in an effort to gain access to extra funding to support its customers’ liquidity needs as cryptocurrency prices fall.
Following the announcement, VGX, the native token of Voyager, decreased by 6.8 per cent. The coin may move in the same direction as CEL, which experienced a sharp decline after the Celsius Network stopped accepting withdrawals. The market capitalisation of all cryptocurrencies increased by 3 per cent over the past day, notwithstanding VGX’s decline.
The Trouble with Three Arrows Capital
An estimated 10 billion USD in assets are managed by Three Arrows Capital, popularly known as 3AC, a Singapore-based cryptocurrency hedge fund. But it’s in trouble, according to officials at numerous companies that are owed money, it is currently in danger of going bankrupt after failing to return many loans totalling hundreds of millions of dollars.
The crypto crisis has caused Three Arrows Capital, along with several other companies in the sector, to struggle. Every coin and token’s price has fallen precipitously, negatively impacting companies with digital assets as liquidity.
