Celsius files for bankruptcy, noting a $1.2 billion balance sheet hole
Celsius filed for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy last week, disclosing a $1.2bn hole in its balance sheet and substantial asset exposure to Celsius’ native token.
Last week, Celsius became the second crypto lender to file a Chapter 11 bankruptcy a month after blocking withdrawals. Celsius reportedly has $167m cash at hand, which they seek to use during the reorganization after the Chapter 11 filing.The bankruptcy filing disclosed Celsius’ largest creditors, with Pharos USD Fund SP being the largest creditor with an unsecured claim of $81m. Later documentation revealed a $1.2 billion hole in Celsius’ balance sheet, with $5.5bn in customer liabilities and $4.3bn worth of assets, of which $600m is related to the company’s CEL holdings and $720m is related to Celsius’ mining branch.Per previous reports, Celsius Mining, has invested in mining equipment and equity investments in Core Scientific, Rhodium Enterprises, and Luxor Technologies. As of November 2021, Celsius stated that they had an operational mining fleet of about 22,000 bitcoin ASIC miners. The substantial hashrate decline experienced recently may be caused by Celsius’ restructuring. In addition to Celsius’ and Voyager’s Chapter 11’s, Vauld and Babel Finance have frozen withdrawals.
