Voyager Files for Bankruptcy, Axie Infinity Land Staking, State of the NFT Market

Chart of The Day: Voyager Digital Files For Bankruptcy

Crypto lender and broker Voyager Digital has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, estimating that it has more than 100k creditors. The single largest creditor is Alameda Research with unsecured loans of $75 million.
Alameda’s history with Voyager dates back to Oct-2021, when the company raised $75 million in strategic investment. The company raised a further $60 million in May-2022 during a private placement led by Alameda. Currently, Alameda owns approximately 9.49% of Voyager’s equity, after surrendering approximately 2.29% of the equity for no compensation.
Voyager Digital is a publicly-traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange as VOYG. The company has also issued the VGX token, allowing users to earn boosted rewards, higher referral bonuses, and better pricing for trades.
On 22nd June, the company announced that its exposure to Three Arrows Capital (3AC) consists of 15,250 BTC and $350 million USDC. Since then, the VGX token has traded at a higher market cap than the company’s VOYG equity shares.
On the same day, the company also announced that it had agreed to a $500 million credit facility from Alameda Research to cover the exposure. Despite this measure, the company restricted customer withdrawals from $25k to $10k and issued a notice of default to 3AC within the next 7 days.
On 2nd July, Singapore-based 3AC filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy, which allows the company to shield US assets and block creditors like Voyager Digital from filing lawsuits.

Two NFT whales borrowed $3.16M across their 147 CryptoPunks (21.5k DAI loan each) on @NFTfi today. 🤔

Also looks like @metastreetxyz was the sole lender for all of these loans.
