The latest payment is part of its ongoing bankruptcy proceedings. The company declared bankruptcy after blocking withdrawals in June 2022, leaving many investors unable to access their assets. The payment is the second in a series intended to refund funds to creditors. This payment follows the initial distribution made earlier this year.
With this additional payment, creditors have now received 60% of their claims. Although this is a big milestone, many creditors are still waiting for their claims to be totally settled. The business continues to liquidate its remaining assets in the intention of repaying as many creditors as possible.
The Road to Celsius Recovery
The financial collapse was caused by a combination of poor management and a drop in the cryptocurrency markets. The company offered high-interest accounts for crypto deposits, which led to a large pool of assets under management. When the market crashed in 2022, Celsius was unable to fulfill its promises to clients.
Celsius is now moving through its bankruptcy proceedings, which include assessing and approving creditors' claims. The payout this week brings some relief to those waiting to recover their funds. However, it remains uncertain when the entire bankruptcy procedure would be completed.
Although the $127 million settlement is a step forward, creditors remain concerned. The company's liquidation is still in progress, and additional payouts may be made. However, many creditors are still unsure how much they would be able to recover from the failed cryptocurrency lender.
