Crypto firm Genesis files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Southern District of New York, with estimated liabilities of $1 billion to $10 billion and estimated assets of $1 billion to $10 billion, according to a filing.
Genesis Global Holdco LLC and two of its lending business subsidiaries, Genesis Global Capital LLC and Genesis Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd., filed for bankruptcy protection in the Southern District of New York. Genesis said that its other subsidiaries involved in the derivatives and spot trading and custody businesses and Genesis Global Trading are not included in the filing and continue client trading operations.
Genesis said that it has more than $150 million in cash on hand, providing ample liquidity to support its ongoing business operations and facilitate its restructuring. An “independent special committee” will lead its restructuring process, including its board of directors, towards coming up with the best outcome.
However, the filing excludes the firms other subsidiaries involved in the derivatives and spot trading and custody businesses and Genesis Global Trading.
Previous reports had revealed that the firm was considering filing for bankruptcy protection in a situation whereby it could not obtain capital to deal with its liquidity crisis.
The firm published a press release on January 19, noting that it discussed with its advisors, creditors and parent company towards evaluating the best way to preserve assets and move the business forward.
“Genesis has now commenced a court-supervised restructuring process to further advance these discussions and reach a holistic solution for its lending business, which, if achieved, would provide an optimal outcome for Genesis clients and Gemini Earn users,” reads the press release.


Some broker comparisons end with a confident "go with this one." This is not one of them — and that honesty is exactly what makes it worth reading. Wundersys and tradgrip are two young, offshore-registered brokers that keep popping up in front of beginner traders, often through aggressive online marketing. Both promise the usual buffet: tight spreads, generous leverage, multiple account tiers. And both, according to WikiFX, sit near the very bottom of the safety scale. So instead of crowning a champion, this comparison is really about something more useful: learning to read the warning signs, understanding the small differences that still matter, and knowing why "the better of two risky options" is still a conversation about risk.

If you trade forex from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, or Nepal, you already know the quiet truth that eats into every trader's results: it is not just the market that decides whether you profit — it is the cost of getting in and out of each trade. Shave a couple of dollars off your commission on every lot, multiply it across hundreds of trades a year, and you are looking at the difference between a strategy that works and one that bleeds out slowly. South Asian traders are some of the most cost-conscious in the world, and rightly so. So we pulled the data on the brokers most often recommended for the region, cross-checked every name on WikiFX, and ranked them by the one number that matters most here: what they actually charge you to trade. Before the list, one quick lesson that will make this whole ranking click.

If you have spent even a week inside trading communities lately, you already know the pitch by heart. Pass a quick "challenge," get handed a funded account worth tens of thousands of dollars, and keep up to 80% of everything you make. No risking your own savings, no slow grind of building capital from scratch — just skill, a small fee, and a fast track to the big leagues. It is the exact dream every new trader is secretly chasing, and an entire industry has sprung up to sell it. XPO Fund is one of the louder voices selling that story right now. Its website is slick, its plans sound generous, and its marketing leans hard on words like "industry's lowest fee" and "fast payouts." But before you reach for your card, there is one number sitting quietly on this firm's profile — a number it would rather you scroll past — that every experienced trader would beg you to look at first. And no, it is not the profit split. Let's pull XPO Fund apart piece by piece: what it actually is, who is real

Every broker with a marketing budget now slaps the letters "ECN" on its homepage. Few of them actually deliver what those letters promise. For a serious trader — a scalper, a day trader, an algo trader, anyone whose edge lives or dies on execution quality — the gap between a true ECN broker and a market maker wearing an ECN costume can quietly cost you hundreds of pips a year in slippage, requotes, and inflated spreads. So we cut through the marketing, looked at the brokers that genuinely offer raw pricing and deep liquidity, and cross-checked every one of them on WikiFX. Here are the six ECN accounts that actually earn the label in 2026 — ranked. First, a short primer, because understanding ECN is what lets you judge these brokers properly.
