Crypto brokerage Genesis warned of the risk of bankruptcy amid contagion from the rapid demise of Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX empire.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady and the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry are among the celebrities that a Texas regulator is investigating for potential securities-law violations tied to their promotions of FTX.reducedConcerns about Genesis and other ailing crypto outfits, such as BlockFi Inc, are unnerving investors. A selloff in Bitcoin paused on Tuesday but the token remains around the lowest level since November 2020.

Uncertainty around cryptocurrency market conditions in the wake of FTX’s collapse and an outage that affected Silvergate’s “wire payment network” prompted the suspension, FalconX said on Monday in a memo to clients. Since then, concerns have abated, San Francisco-based FalconX said.
