Hundreds of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) collected by Starry Night Capital have been transferred to a new wallet. The NFT fund of the insolvent crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) bought the tokens in 2021. 3AC filed for bankruptcy earlier this year, after taking a hit from the collapse of the Terra ecosystem and the ensuing crypto winter. Now its liquidator, Teneo, says the tokens are being transferred into its hands.
Starry Night Capital Fund’s Collection of NFTs Being Moved to Gnosis Safe Address
NFTs from a premium collection belonging to Starry Night Capital, featuring Cryptopunks among other valuable collectibles, are moving to a new wallet, the crypto analytics firm Nansen revealed on Twitter. More than 300 tokens of a total exceeding 400 NFTs have been transferred to a Gnosis Safe account, a multi-signature Ethereum wallet.
The Starry Night Capital NFT fund was established last year by crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital and an NFT collector going by the pseudonym Vincent Van Dough. Their initial intention was to raise some $100 million in order to acquire tokens from popular NFT collections and prominent artists.
