FTX Proposes to Provide Early Liquidity to Voyager’s Customers

FTX announced it has proposed to assist Voyager Digital’s clients by providing early liquidity. The offer was made with West Realm Shires Inc, FTX US and Alameda Ventures.

Sam Bankman-Fried, the Co-Founder and CEO of FTX said: «Voyager’s customers did not choose to be bankruptcy investors holding unsecured claims.

«The goal of our joint proposal is to help establish a better way to resolve an insolvent crypto business – a way that allows customers to obtain early liquidity and reclaim a portion of their assets without forcing them to speculate on bankruptcy outcomes and take one-sided risks.»

The proposal is to opening a new account with FTX. The account will be funded by a portion of the bankruptcy claims. Clients will have a choice whether to immediately withdraw the funds or use the capital for buying cryptocurrencies on the platform.

FTX highlights that no clients will be forced to have an account. The proposal is only for clients that are interested in the offer. FTX wishes to close the deal as soon as possible, which requires that court approval.

A motion for approval of the Agreement and the Acquisition will be made on or prior to 3 August 2022. The court approval is expected on or prior to 15 August and the closing date on or prior to 17 August.

3AC Loans Are Excluded

Alameda Ventures will acquire all of the digital assets and loans (with the exception of loans to 3AC and its affiliates). FTX would then distribute a share of the cash (from Alameda’s acquisition) to clients that open an account at FTX.

For the first 30 days, Voyager’s clients can buy cryptocurrencies without any fees should they remain at FTX rather than withdrawing their funds.

In the submitted document, the purchase price will composed of:

1. with respect to Digital Assets, the Fair Market Value of such Digital Assets as of the second trading day immediately prior to the Closing Date or such other reference date as the parties may agree;

2. with respect to customer information and exclusive referral rights with respect to customer accounts, US$15 million; and

3. with respect to all other Acquired Assets, the cancellation of all amounts due under Alameda’s $75 million loan to Voyager Digital Holdings, Inc. (on-lent to Voyager Digital, LLC). The “Fair Market Value” of any Digital Assets will be calculated by Alameda in good faith based on market practice and available pricing information, subject to confirmation by the Sellers of the reasonableness of such determination.

If the parties cannot agree on the price of any specific Digital Asset, such Digital Asset shall constitute an Excluded Asset.

Bankman-Fried said that FTX is prepared to provide hundreds of millions to crypto companies that are facing difficulties due to the downturn in the crypto markets.

He added that he would like to see more companies announce their intentions to provide capital for companies in need.
