Voyager filed for bankruptcy last year following the collapse of FTX, which was in talks to acquire Voyager before its implosion led to a market-wide downturn.
It is currently unclear why the tokens, which equate to around 30% of the total supply, was sent to a burn address. Voyager outlined its intention to liquidate all assets in March this year.
Voyager did not immediately respond to CoinDesk's request for comment.
