Alameda Research, associated with FTX, filed a lawsuit on Monday against Voyager Digital Ltd VYGVF for the recovery of a staggering $445 million.
What Happened: Despite this news, the price of Voyager VGX/USD surged by a remarkable 49.2% to $0.76 on Tuesday. This came after Voyager, FTX and Alameda filed for bankruptcy last year.
However, Voyager’s filing came four months earlier in July 2022, which prompted Alameda to demand that all outstanding loans to FTX and its sister company Alameda Research be repaid.
