A U.S. federal bankruptcy court has approved a request by foreign representatives of liquidators of Three Arrows Capital to administer the crypto hedge fund's assets in the U.S. and subpoena its founders and other relevant parties, according to an order issued Tuesday.

  • The Singapore-based hedge fund filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. on July 1. It had previously been ordered to be liquidated in the British Virgin Islands.
  • Earlier on Tuesday, Three Arrows’s co-founder Su Zhu posted screenshots of an email sent from his legal counsel to legal representatives of its liquidators, alleging they are “baiting” Zhu and co-founder Kyle Davis and ignoring their good-faith attempts to work with them.
  • In legal documents filed late Friday, lawyers for Three Arrows's liquidators said Zhu and Davies were not cooperating with the proceedings and their location is unknown.
  • The first meeting of Three Arrow's creditors will be held on July 18, according to sources who spoke to The Block. The meeting will be hosted by Teneo, a financial advisory firm that is 3AC's court-appointed liquidator.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

16:9 Image

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.

What to know:

  • KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
  • This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
  • Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
  • Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
  • Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
