Embattled crypto broker platform Voyager Digital has been selling off its cryptocurrency holdings at a fast rate, blockchain intelligence firm Arkham Intelligence tweeted.
Blockchain transaction data by Arkham shows that Voyager transferred at least some $54 million of cryptocurrencies to exchanges Coinbase and Binance.US in the past week, likely to sell the tokens. It transferred at least $24.7 million of ether (ETH), $12.2 million of shiba inu (SHIB) and $2.5 million of Chainlink’s LINK to exchanges through the last seven days, per Arkham's data.

The crypto broker’s total deposits to exchanges amount to $121 million since the beginning of February.
Transaction data also shows that Voyager received some $150 million of Circle’s USDC stablecoin from Coinbase in the past four days, likely proceeds from the cryptocurrency sales.
Voyager halted all trading and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July. As part of the court proceedings, it agreed to sell itself to Binance.US after an auction. Federal and state regulators' concerns have mounted around the deal, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) probing Voyager’s VGX token as unregistered securities offering.
The crypto broker’s recent maneuver may also foreshadow selling pressure for the cryptocurrencies that are among the firm’s largest holdings, notably for ETH and SHIB.
