According to reports, Voyager Digital Holdings, Inc. has announced a collaboration with Alameda Ventures. The venture company provided Voyager with severance credit. Voyager said in a note to investors that it is owed 15,250 BTC and 350 million USDC, and the company gave 3AC a deadline to pay back the funds.

The company also added:

As previously disclosed, the proceeds of the credit facility are intended to be used to safeguard customer assets in light of current market volatility and only if such use is needed.

Alameda Applies Certain Loan Conditions

Meanwhile, the news follows the crypto lender Blockfi securing a $250 million line of credit from FTX. Following the loan, a report published by the Wall Street Journal claims that FTX is discussing purchasing a stake in Blockfi. Voyager has to adhere to certain conditions when Alameda offers Voyager funds. For instance, “Alameda’s obligation to provide funding is subject to certain conditions, including: no more than US$75 million may be drawn down over any rolling 30-day period.” The loan agreement summary further adds:

[Voyager’s] corporate debt must be limited to approximately 25 percent of customer assets on the platform, less US $500 million; and additional sources of funding must be secured within 12 months.

Voyager still intends to pursue assets from 3AC and has been discussing the “legal remedies available.” The announcement notes that Voyager is “unable to assess at this point the amount it will be able to recover from 3AC.” On June 21, Voyager’s shares listed on TSX were trading for $1. 23 per unit, and today, the stock is exchanging hands for $0. 58 per unit. Additionally, Alameda indirectly holds 22,681,260 common shares of Voyager, equating to 11. 56% of outstanding common and variable voting shares.
