Three Arrows Capital<\/a>, the embattled crypto hedge fund, is accused of utilizing customer assets to fulfill margin calls on its positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Danny Yuan, the CEO of cryptocurrency trading firm 8Blocks Capital, claimed that Three Arrows spent around $1 million of 8Blocks' cash to respond to its margin call. In 2020, 8Blocks reached an arrangement with the hedge fund to use the latter's trading accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The charges come as Three Arrow faces repeated debtor liquidations, amidst a steep drop in the cryptocurrency market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the firm's bets have already been liquidated, which has contributed to a drop in the crypto market, particularly Ethereum prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yuan of 8Blocks claimed in a Twitter thread\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> that the company had requested a withdrawal of its cash from Three Arrows earlier this week, which was denied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The corporation then discovered that around $1 million of its cash with Three Arrows had gone missing. 8Blocks' attempts to approach Three Arrows were once again rejected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yuan further claims that Three Arrows failed to respond to margin calls from some of its debtors, causing them to liquidate the hedge fund's assets. As a result, the overall market dived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CEO of 8Blocks has now filed a lawsuit against the hedge fund. To that aim, he urged other crypto platforms holding Three Arrows assets to freeze their positions for lenders to retrieve them through legal action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, Three Arrows founder Zhu Su stated<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> that the company is “communicating with relevant parties” about the recent decline. However, on Twitter, Su has distanced himself from Ethereum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto markets have recently begun to recover from recent losses, lowering the risk of a larger liquidation for Three Arrows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the company is not out of the woods yet. Because the token has de-pegged from Ethereum<\/a>, its large exposure to Lido Staked Ethereum (stETH<\/a>) exposes the corporation to margin calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its exposure to the troubled lender Celsius, which recently banned withdrawals, is also expected to put a strain on its portfolio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
