Report: Bankrupt Crypto Hedge Fund Three Arrows Capital Probed by SEC, CFTC for Possible Legal Violations

Reports indicate that the bankrupt crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) is facing more trouble from liquidators and financial authorities from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The whereabouts of the hedge fund’s co-founders Su Zhu and Kyle Davis are still unknown and the court-appointed liquidator plans to leverage unorthodox means to send the two co-founders a subpoena.

Bloomberg contributors Allyson Versprille, Lydia Beyoud, and Olga Kharif claim that anonymous sources say U.S. regulators are investigating 3AC for not registering with the SEC or CFTC and the problems with the company’s balance sheet.

According to another report, statistics show that 3AC had roughly $10 billion in assets under management (AUM) last March before the Terra implosion. Bloomberg’s Jeremy Hill explained on Monday, that the court-appointed liquidator from the 3AC bankruptcy case is looking to subpoena Zhu and Davis via Twitter and email.

Attorneys for Teneo, the court-appointed liquidator, attempted to leverage the traditional method of subpoena communications and the attempts to locate and subpoena Zhu and Davis have failed. Hill’s report says Davis kept crypto account credentials stored in a…
