Peep in the Vauld’s Past
Vauld, a company launched in 2018 by Bathija and Sanju Kurian, provides a variety of options for cryptocurrency investors, including fixed deposits and platforms for asset-backed lending and borrowing. On July 4th Vauld stopped its operations due to financial challenges and erratic market conditions.
In the meantime, we have made the difficult decision to suspend all withdrawals, trading and deposits on the Vauld platform with immediate effect.

Since June 12th, 2022, the company has had withdrawals totaling $198 million. The large withdrawals were attributed to Terra’s implosion, Celsius Network’s financial difficulties, and 3AC defaulting on its financing.
To cut costs during the instability of the cryptocurrency market, Vauld was forced to decrease its employment by 30% in June. Following that, it immediately ceased taking customer accounts.
Users of Vauld’s Telegram channel were informed by Bathija that the company was working on a solution and will make an announcement regarding liabilities and finance. According to an insider source, the company intends to send a letter to its creditors.
