Genesis finance group

Founded in 2013 as one of the first OTC Bitcoin trading desks, Genesis grew into a full-service digital currency prime brokerage. It provided a wide range of services to institutional clients and high-net-worth individuals, including OTC trading, derivatives, lending, and custody. As a subsidiary of the Digital Currency Group (DCG), Genesis was a central player in the institutional crypto market. However, the firm faced severe financial distress following the collapse of Three Arrows Capital (3AC) and FTX. In November 2022, its lending arm, Genesis Global Capital, suspended redemptions and new loan originations, which ultimately led the company to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in January 2023.
