Bankrupt FTX tries to claw back $446 million from bankrupt Voyager

It's no big secret that there's a lot less money actually floating around in crypto than bogus "market caps" and other numbers would have you believe, but it's being put into stark relief as the various bankrupt crypto firms fight tooth and nail over any scrap of cash that may actually remain.

In FTX's ongoing efforts to dig through the proverbial couch cushions in search of any funds that could be used to fill the gaping hole in its balance sheet, the firm has sued Voyager, a crypto broker that filed for bankruptcy in July, to try to recoup $446 million in funds that were "preferentially transferred" to Voyager when it filed for bankruptcy.

The lawsuit alleges that Voyager served as a "feeder fund" that "solicited retail investors and invested their money with little or no due diligence in cryptocurrency investment funds like Alameda and Three Arrows Capital".
