Most recently, Singapore has been at the center of the crypto winter. The collapsed crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) has its headquarters in Singapore, where co-founder Zhu Su is also based. The crash in crypto prices has led to 3AC filing for Chapter 15 bankruptcy in the United States while a court on British Virgin Island ordered its liquidation. The Singapore MAS reprimanded 3AC for providing false information. Now, regulations for crypto companies on the island nation are to be tightened.
FinTelegram reported that a British Virgin Islands court ordered the liquidation of the crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital Ltd (3AC) earlier this week. The fund, founded by former Credit Suisse traders Zhu Su and Kyle Davies, managed an estimated $10 billion of assets as recently as March, according to blockchain analytics firm Nansen. While Bloomberg reported that 3AC filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy to protect its U.S. assets, rumors suggest that liquidators are going for the Singapore assets of 3AC and its founder.
