Golden Finance reported that the Celsius bankruptcy administrator stated in its first payment status report that more than $2.53 billion had been distributed to approximately 251,000 creditors. These payments were made in liquid cryptocurrencies and cash at prices on January 16. The administrator stated in court documents filed on Monday that they covered about two-thirds of all eligible creditors of the cryptocurrency lender, accounting for about 93% of the eligible value. Another 121,000 eligible creditors received an average distribution of about $1,500, but have not yet successfully received the distribution. "Approximately 64,000 of the remaining creditors received a distribution of less than $100, and approximately 41,000 received a distribution between $100 and $1,000," the document said. "Given the small amounts involved for many creditors, they may not be motivated to take the steps required to successfully claim a distribution."
