    SINGAPORE-BASED crypto company Zipmex has taken legal action against its Thai investor, V Ventures, for allegedly backing out of a US$100 million rescue deal.

    The deal would have resulted in Zipmex’s creditors, totalling more than 70,000, recovering all their funds.

    With the plan now unlikely to succeed, the company has proposed a new scheme of arrangement.
