The Traveler Token (VGX-USD) soared 420% in morning trading even though its founder, digital travel, filed for bankruptcy protection. VGX crypto is now changing hands for around 80 cents per token.

Voyager Digital revealed on July 6 that it had filed for bankruptcy the previous day. In its filing, the company revealed that it has approximately $1.3 billion in crypto assets and over $350 million in cash, which are held in an account for the benefit of clients (FBO).

The company said Voyager Digital’s bankruptcy was caused by the collapse of Capital of the Three Arrows (3AC), a hedge fund that had invested heavily in cryptos. Voyager announced that it had given 3AC a $650 million loan. On July 1, Voyager suspended all withdrawals, deposits and rewards from its accounts.
