As of the end of Q3 2022, Genesis Global Capital’s total loans were $2.8 billion. Another person familiar with the matter pointed out that any approach could be rejected by DCG, Genesis’ parent company, and that Changpeng Zhao could need to invest more than $2 billion.

Genesis is looking for solutions for the lending sector, including finding new sources of liquidity.
According to an unconfirmed source, Genesis may have solvency issues. The cause was determined to be due to very large exposure to FTX and Alameda Research. Information also revealed that things will be clearer today.
