A cryptocurrency hedge fund set up by two former investment bankers has collapsed owing more than half a billion dollars. Three Arrows Capital entered liquidation on Wednesday after a British Virgin Islands court ruled in favour of creditors seeking repayment of debts. Shortly before its demise, the hedge fund had defaulted on a $674m loan, triggering creditors to seek its liquidation. Blockchain analysis business Nansen estimated that Three Arrows had the equivalent of $10bn under management, though the valuation of cryptocurrencies in real-world money tends to be much more volatile than for other asset classes. Two partners from US consulting firm Teneo have been appointed by the BVI court to handle the insolvency, Bloomberg reported. A website will be set up for creditors to register their claims, with a source telling the newswire that a sale of Three Arrows’ remaining assets is possible. Three Arrows did not respond to requests for comment. Teneo declined to comment. … [Read more...] about Crypto hedge fund collapses after defaulting on $674m loan

Families on low incomes are enduring a “year of financial fear” and making grim choices such as falling behind on bills, going without essentials or taking on expensive debt, a report has found. The Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) said the cost-of-living crisis and a decade of social security cuts and underfunding are taking a heavy toll. It used a survey of about 4,000 people on low household incomes in May and June (the bottom 40%, which equates to an income of under £25,000 for a couple with no children), for the report. Rather than making the trade-off between heating or eating, one in five (21%) low income households were unable to do either – going without enough food as well as being unable to keep their homes warm, researchers found. Six in 10 (60%) had gone without essentials since the start of 2022, or, had cut down on or skipped meals, or gone hungry in the previous 30 days. Recommended Over £130m handed to housing providers named and … [Read more...] about Families on low incomes suffering ‘year of financial fear’ – charity

Whether you have to work, or you're off on Monday for Columbus Day, you're in the majority if you decide to celebrate. Nearly 60 percent of respondents to a recent poll on the controversial holiday said they thought observing Columbus Day was a "good idea." Christopher Columbus himself notched a 56 percent approval rating. The Italian explorer credited with discovering America apparently still has some fans despite his battered reputation.
