Source: a British Virgin Islands court ordered the liquidation of Singapore-based Three Arrows Capital on June 27; Teneo will handle the insolvency process

A court in the British Virgin Islands has ordered the liquidation of Singapore-based Three Arrows Capital, underlining the crisis gripping …

Sky News Mark Kleinman

Context & Ripple Effects

Three Arrows Capital's failure had already reached counterparties: BlockFi liquidated some of the fund's positions after missed margin calls. The court process shifts the episode from bilateral risk management into an organized insolvency overseen by Teneo.

Related coverage shows the liquidation becoming cross-border: the subsequent Chapter 15 filing protected US assets while the British Virgin Islands process proceeded. That makes the appointment consequential for creditors with claims or assets across jurisdictions.

First-order effects

  • Teneo takes control of the insolvency process, replacing Three Arrows Capital's own management as the mechanism for handling the failed fund's estate.
  • Creditors move from closing positions individually toward a court-supervised process for asserting claims against Three Arrows Capital.

Second-order effects

  • BlockFi and other counterparties that had already liquidated positions must reconcile those actions with Teneo's administration and the broader creditor process.
  • The later Chapter 15 filing extends the British Virgin Islands liquidation's reach to US assets, making cross-border asset preservation part of the recovery process.

Third-order effects

  • The later effort to recover $1.3B from the co-founders shows how a fund liquidation can progress from asset control to pursuing insiders, rather than ending with the initial unwind.
  • For internationally structured crypto funds, the sequence points toward insolvencies being resolved through coordinated offshore and US court processes rather than solely through exchange or lender liquidations.

The trend: Crypto-fund failures are moving from rapid counterparty liquidations into cross-border court processes that centralize asset recovery and creditor claims.

    The end of a cowboy era. Good. This bear market has seen a wipe-out of shitty unicorn fart and rainbow products and platforms. Unfortunately, some bet on the wrong things like 3AC did. We need more regulations to further legitimize this industry. https://news.sky.com/...

    History of exchanges in crypto since inception to now have their own cycles. Personally wouldn't have funds on anything less than Tier 1 exchanges right now. This happens every cycle. Nor would I in high ponzi yield services if you haven't learned yet. This coming from SBF btw ht…

    Specifically calls out that there are third tier crypto exchanges which are secretly insolvent and admits to taking on somewhat bad deals rn to keep things afloat altho not altruistic. https://twitter.com/...
