OPNX token spikes 50% after Su Zhu unexpectedly posts a ‘gm’ on Twitter

The OX token hit a price high not seen since co-founder Su Zhu was arrested in late September.

Open Exchange Token (OX), the native token of the crypto bankruptcy claims platform OPNX, spiked 50% just 20 minutes after co-founder Su Zhu supposedly posted to X (Twitter) for the first time since his arrest.

On Dec. 29, the same day he was arrested at Singapore’s Changi Airport attempting to leave the country.

In the 20 minutes after Su’s X post, OX jumped nearly 50% to $0.021 and hit a 63-day high — a price not seen since the day of Su’s Sept. 29 arrest, according to CoinGecko data.

Shortly after the price peak, OX retraced by around 6%.

Su was arrested on Sept.

The order was meant to see Su serve four months’ imprisonment — meaning he wouldn’t be released until next year, though some have speculated he may have been released after a wallet labeled”suzhu.eth”—believed to belong to Su (though unconfirmed) — became active again on Nov.

OPNX, short for Open Exchange, is a platform allowing for the trade of creditor claims from bankrupt crypto companies.

Su and co-founder Kyle Davies founded the exchange following the bankruptcy of their $10 billion Singapore-based crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) — which folded in June 2022.

Su and Davies both initially fled Singapore after 3AC’s collapse. Su returned and Davies is believed to reside on the Indonesian island of Bali.
