What the Voyager Digital Bankruptcy Means for Your Cash and Crypto

After publishing an update on the assets kept by users on its platform, Voyager (OTCMKTS:VYGVF) is once again in the news. This is the most recent development in the tale since Voyager Digital filed for bankruptcy on July 6.


Since Voyager stopped all withdrawals, deposits, and incentives on July 1st, users have been living in a world of uncertainty. The collapse of the cryptocurrency hedge fund Three Arrows Capital was cited as the reason for the crypto lender's decision to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (3AC). Before 3AC disclosed its insolvency, Voyager had financed it $650 million.


If the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is backing the US dollars (USD) on the platform is another contentious issue (FDIC). The FDIC is now investigating Voyager's client outreach for deposit insurance.


However, based on the most recent business update, it seems that Voyager clients will be able to receive their USD back. Now let's discuss the specifics.

What Your Cash and Crypto Means After the Voyager Digital Bankruptcy

According to the update, Voyager maintains USD in a Metropolitan Bank For Benefit of Customers (FBO) account (NYSE:MCB). The USD balance in each customer's account is the same as the USD balance Voyager has in its FBO account. Customers' USD will thus be available following "a reconciliation and fraud prevention procedure" and is FDIC-insured. Voyager stressed:


"To be clear: Voyager does not handle client cash; that cash is housed at MCB. FDIC insurance does not protect against the demise of Voyager."


The platform's crypto assets are a separate matter, even if it seems that the FDIC covers Voyager's USD. Currently, Voyager has around $1.3 billion worth of cryptocurrency holdings. Customers will be compensated for their current holdings under the parameters of the Chapter 11 restructuring plan with a mix of cryptocurrency and stock. Customers may choose how much common stock and cryptocurrency they want to get.


Voyager tokens and the remaining cryptocurrency were returned. Customers will furthermore get common shares in the newly reformed firm and money recovered from 3AC. Voyager points out that the suggested approach might yet alter.


Voyager is now seeking further strategic options. The potential of a "third-party investment or sale" was also acknowledged by the corporation.
