The $51 million cash payment plus $60 million in incentives is a blow to the cryptocurrency market. It has negative ramifications on crypto platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Markets punished Voyager when the firm lent most of its assets to Three Arrows Capital. When 3AC filed for bankruptcy, it took down Voyager with it. Last week, FTX won the bid to acquire Voyager for $1.4 billion. It will need only $51 million in cash for the acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>FTX will distribute the $1.31 billion in crypto holdings to eligible creditors. Voyager\u2019s intellectual property and structure will have a value of around $111 million.<\/p>\n<p>Voyager\u2019s bankruptcy has no impact on the price of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. It barely had an impact on Voyager Token (VGX) in the last month. Still, VGX more than <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/voyager-token\/\" rel=\"noopener\">doubled last month<\/a> only to give up those gains. The token fell from the $0.68 &#8211; $0.76 level between September 24 \u2013 27 to close at 58 cents on October 1, 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Your Takeaway<\/p>\n<p>Crypto investors should focus primarily on bitcoin. This is the steadiest among all cryptos. In addition, the GBTC ETF is preferable over holding crypto on a platform.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.baystreet.ca\/cryptonews\/392\/What-FTXs-Buyout-of-Voyager-Digital-Means-for-Cryptocurrency\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; &#013; FTX won the bid to buy Voyager Digital, a bankruptcy crypto firm.
