About
BlockFi, a cryptocurrency lending platform, announced on June 13, 2022, that it had secured a $400 million revolving credit facility and a potential acquisition option from FTX US, totaling up to $680 million. This move came in response to significant crypto market volatility, including the fallout from Celsius and Three Arrows Capital (3AC), which led to increased client withdrawals and approximately $80 million in losses for BlockFi from its exposure to 3AC. The company emphasized that these losses were absorbed internally without impacting client funds. The deal aims to bolster liquidity and protect client assets, reflecting BlockFi's commitment to maintaining stability amid industry turbulence.
