Bankrupt crypto lender Celsius can start sending out ballots to its customers for a vote on a proposed settlement plan that would see a consortium called Fahrenheit buy Celsius’ assets and launch a new company. That company would distribute Celsius assets and equity in the new company to its customers.
Judge Martin Glenn of the Southern District of New York bankruptcy court approved a motion to allow Celsius customers to vote on a settlement of class claims to reimburse participants in Celsius’ Earn program, as well as to increase customers’ recoveries by 5% to resolve claims concerning fraud and misrepresentation by Celsius management.
