As Coinlive Cointelegraph reported that Binance’s acquisition of bankrupt cryptocurrency company Voyager was accredited by a New York court judge on March eight.

Thinking that this paper-consuming negotiation had come to an finish, just two days later on, the US government continued to block the deal. Specifically, the Trusteeship Office of the Ministry of Justice has appeal objected to Judge Michael Wiles’ choice.

Previously, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) also took related action, alleging a violation of federal securities laws for the reason that Binance.US is an unregistered exchange with this company.

Due to its hefty involvement with Three Arrows Capital’s liquidity crisis, cryptocurrency lending platform Voyager went bankrupt in July 2022, registering in excess of one hundred,000 creditors with $ten billion.

Voyager at first agreed to “sell” itself to FTX. At the time, FTX narrowly defeated and won towards rivals Wave Financial and Binance. Eventually, FTX also followed the bankruptcy and the deal was handed in excess of to Binance.US, this exchange’s subsidiary of Binance which agreed to bail out Voyager as soon as once more.

However, US authorities had been not incredibly “happy” with the deal, repeatedly building accusations towards Binance.US. Therefore, Voyager traders nonetheless have to wait a lengthy time to begin obtaining their payout.

VGX token value is down a lot more than 26% in the previous 24 hrs, trading close to $.34. This decline followed the standard decline in the market place on the morning of March ten due to a string of adverse information.
