Binance Terminates $1 Bn Voyager Acquisition Deal, What's Next?

Binance Ends $1B Voyager Deal

A U.S. bankruptcy judge gave the go-ahead for the sale to Binance.US just one month ago and according to the previous plan, customers’ funds would have been recovered to the extent of 73%. However, this amount could have been reduced to 48% in the event that claims from the defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX and its subsidiary Alameda Research were successful. There was a resounding 97% yes vote among the 6% of creditors who voted on the proposed Voyager plan.

The scheme, which would have allowed Voyager customers to switch over to Binance.US, was met with intense governmental investigation, leading the Securities and Exchange Commission to assert that Binance.US was operating an unregistered securities exchange in the United States. This may be one plausible reason why the US-based crypto exchange notified Voyager of its termination earlier today.

In a tweet, the committee of unsecured creditors expressed extreme displeasure with the decision and indicated that it was looking into the possibility of bringing legal action against Binance exchange.
