A ruling by the United States(U.S.) court has approved the final dates for the Celsius customer to file for bankruptcy, where the final dates will be January 3rd, 2023.
Celsius took this to Twitter, where it posted it on its official account, saying, “This week, the bankruptcy court approved our motion to set the bar date, which is the deadline for all customers to file a claim. The bar date has been set for January 3, 2023.”
The payouts from this case will not be available to creditors who have not submitted claims. After the Terra ecosystem collapsed earlier in May, cryptocurrency lender Celsius Network ran into serious difficulties. The platform further shared details in a tweet on how one should file for bankruptcy, where it also stated that the next hearing will be on the 5TH of December this year.
Celsius continued by saying that clients who consent to the company’s scheduling of claims are exempt from submitting proof of claim. Furthermore, they are not compelled to take any further action in relation to this claim. “We keep a careful eye on the environment for our sector. Data and asset security are still top priorities for everyone at Celsius, we want to take this chance to reassure you of that.
According to Celsius Networks, the 5th of December will be the date of the next hearing. The business will now have in-depth conversations about custody and withheld accounts.
Similar products offered by Celsius, Custody, and Withhold, allowed consumers to keep their digital coins with the lender while continuing to possess them. Customers of these products contend that they shouldn’t be included with other unsecured creditors. Additionally, the users insist on receiving a complete refund.
Furthermore, according to a report by examiner Shoba Pillay, Celsius debuted its Custody product “without adequate accounting and operational controls or technical infrastructure.” Custodial wallets were therefore underfunded by $50.5 million, or 24%, on June 24 despite being overfunded by June 10 and June 10, respectively.
