TrigonX plans to relaunch after overcoming $50 Million debts

• 28 views

TL;DR Breakdown

  • TrigonX, an Australian crypto exchange that collapsed with significant debts, is poised for a revival after creditors approved a deed of company arrangement.
  • The collapse of FTX in November 2022 had a cascading effect on numerous digital asset exchanges, including TrigonX, which was unable to meet withdrawal demands.
  • The revival of TrigonX signals a potential recovery for the exchange and offers a glimpse of resilience within the Australian crypto industry.

TrigonX, an Australian crypto exchange that collapsed in December 2022 with significant debts exceeding $50 million, is poised for a revival after creditors approved a deed of company arrangement. Matteo Salerno, the company director, stated that relaunching the exchange under this arrangement would provide a more favorable outcome for creditors compared to liquidation.

The collapse of FTX in November 2022 had a cascading effect on numerous digital asset exchanges, including TrigonX, which was unable to meet withdrawal demands and subsequently appointed administrators on December 16, 2022. A report by legal firm Kroll revealed that TrigonX’s failure was influenced by multiple factors, including the collapse of FTX and legal action taken by customers seeking the return of their funds.

Salerno clarified that certain payments made to himself and his wife, which were scrutinized in the Kroll report, were intended to update employee entitlements in anticipation of the company’s pending sale. The aim of the receivership was to achieve an expedient outcome that benefits the creditors, as liquidation would have tied up funds for an extended period, leading to a substantial depletion of available distributions.

TrigonX revival

Among TrigonX’s creditors is Sydney-based investor King River Capital, which is seeking to recover $9 million that was not authorized for trading with FTX at the time, as reported by the Australian Financial Review in April.

The case of TrigonX follows the near-collapse of another Australian crypto exchange, Digital Surge, which narrowly avoided financial ruin in the aftermath of the FTX meltdown. In January, Digital Surge creditors approved a five-year bailout plan, allowing the exchange to continue operating.

The revival of TrigonX signals a potential recovery for the exchange and offers a glimpse of resilience within the Australian crypto industry. As regulatory oversight and investor protection measures continue to evolve, exchanges are working to navigate challenges, learn from past incidents, and provide a more secure trading environment for cryptocurrency users in Australia.

  • Super Hyper Bitcoinization Could Potentially Challenge US Dollar Dominance

    TL;DR Breakdown Max Keiser suggests that the adoption of BTC, as seen in El Salvador, could disrupt central banks and combat hyperinflation in other countries. The rise of BRICS nations and their pursuit of alternative financial systems may challenge the global dominance of the US Dollar as the world reserve currency. In a recent panel discussion at The Bitcoin Conference 2023, Max Keiser, Senior Advisor to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, presented his views on the potential emergence of “super hyper Bitcoinization” as a means to counteract hyperinflation and destabilized central banks worldwide. Keiser emphasized that El Salvador’s groundbreaking decision to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender could pave the way for other nations to follow suit.  As central banks face increasing challenges and potential failures, Keiser believes that BTC could act as a disruptive force, heralding the end of the three-century-old central banking experiment. Furthermore, he underscored the changing geopolitical landscape, with the rapid expansion of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) nations potentially posing competition to the U.S. Dollar’s dominance.
