Voyager Digital, which is in the liquidation process, is making false and misleading claims that its customer funds are insured by the US government, the Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FIDC) clarified on Thursday.

The US regulators issued a cease and desist order against the crypto company and even asked it to take immediate corrective measures to address the false and misleading statements.

The regulators highlighted that Voyager suggested that it is FIDC-insured and the funds of the customers who invested with Voyager would receive FIDC coverage. The company even claimed that the funds are safe even against the failure of Voyager itself.

The company made these claims on various platforms including its website, mobile app and social media accounts.

“These representations are false and misleading and based on the information we have to date it appears that the representations likely misled and were relied upon by customers who placed their funds with Voyager and do not have immediate access to their funds,” the regulators said.

The statement, jointly signed by the Assistant General Counsel of Enforcement at both the regulators, asked Voyager to submit a written confirmation if it believes that the claims are true. Additionally, the company has to submit a full list of claims it made regarding deposit insurance along with documentation to support their accuracy.
