Celsius and its creditors may finally see eye-to-eye
The weekend rally was attributable to the news of Celsius reaching a settlement with the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors concerning a class claim. In this claim, account holders accused the crypto platform’s former management of engaging in fraudulent activities, misrepresentation, and other actions that purportedly caused harm to them.
According to court documents filed on July 20, the bankrupt lender noted that the settlement with the committee was to prevent any major harm to “creditors through delayed distributions and ultimately lower distributions as a result of increased administrative expenses incurred in connection with adjudicating such claims.”
Celsius stated that it was willing to offer an additional 5% to the claims of account holders who opt into the lawsuit settlement.
“Any eligible Account Holder who does not opt out of the Settlement will receive a claim in the amount of 105% of their scheduled claim, which will supersede and extinguish any related Proofs of Claim filed by such Account Holder,” the court filing read.
For account holders who do not accept the terms of the settlement, Celsius added:
“But any Account Holder who opts out will not receive the increased claim amount, will not receive a distribution from the Debtors until their applicable Proofs of Claim are fully and finally resolved by the Bankruptcy Court—which likely will be months—perhaps years—after the Effective Date, and will have to litigate and prove or otherwise resolve their proofs of claim against the Debtors after the Effective Date.”
