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.

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.
