Since a legal dispute is likely, the venture Fund Defiance Three Arrows Capital is targeting
- A number of opponents of Three Arrows are now facing the prospect of losing millions of dollars that are in the insolvency floating
- sources said block works that show the unveiling that it was still unclear how deep Three Arrows was anchored in the crypto ecosystem
Another asset manager who focuses on digital assets has caught up in the extensive financial network, which is littered with bankruptcies and restructuring and assumes the insolvent crypto hedge fund company Three Arrows Capital.
Defiance Capital-A risk capital company that focuses on web3, defi and blockchain-based gaming startups-was founded according to two sources of Three Arrows. The companies merged a number of co-investment deals, including participations to decentralized exchange dydx and The Solana Smart-Contract specialist Orca .
This camaraderie forged by capitalism has dissolved. Fast.
Defiance now consider legal steps against Three Arrows, said the sources. This can be done in the form of an arbitration, a lawsuit or a change in the insolvency proceedings in order to achieve repayment as a creditor.
The partnership wore fruits when Three Arrows developed a reputation as an accomplished dealmaker, directly in the upper class of crypto investors. The company, which is currently on bankruptcy and comprehensive restructuring, has increased its assets and delivered an above -average performance overall.
Access to the dealflow grew and made Three Arrows an invaluable partner for defiance.
Now Three Arrows owes Arrows crypto loan, including the now bankrupt Voyager, a collective sum of billions of dollars, and his limited partners have to deal with the prospect that their considerable investments go to zero.
and his opponents - together with Voyager, Börsen, Depotbanken and, yes, friends of asset managers with whom Three Arrow did business - are essentially also under water.
Details on the exact relationship between Three Arrows and Defiance, which is led by founder Arthur Cheong, are unclear. But it seems that Three Arrows played a major role in the introduction of Defiance in September 2020 by offering baking and middle office support as well as access to the dealflow and consultations when setting.
It is not known whether the company founded the startup or bought part of the General Partnership, which goes hand in hand with sales participation in the investor fees. But the couple not only invested in promising projects side by side, but also shared certain service providers, and it is unclear who paid for what. The asset managers also had a number of limited partners.
These investors have repaid some capital from Defiance in the midst of the latest market depressing, but a source categorized it as "nothing really extraordinary if you consider the market". The company's flagship has exceeded Bitcoin since it was founded, said the source.
Like many competitors,Cheong's team was also affected by the collapse of Terras StableCoin. But in the case of defiance, the damage seems to have been minimal - apart from a decent use lfg (the luna foundation guard).
The source added: "Obviously, in view of the market conditions, there will be more people who want to reduce the risks and reduce their crypto exposure."
According to a source, the company still manages over $ 100 million somewhere.
cheong refused to comment.
SU ZHU, co -founder of Three Arrows, did not immediately respond to an inquiry by telegram to clarify the relationship between 3AC and defiance.
