Celsius will conduct its third distribution to lenders, with a total amount of $220.6 million
BlockBeats News, August 20, according to Cointelegraph, Celsius will begin its third distribution to eligible creditors, totaling $2.206 billion, which will bring the cumulative recovery rate to approximately 64.9% of the claim value.
BlockBeats previously reported that on May 9, Celsius founder Alex Mashinsky was sentenced to 12 years in prison for crypto fraud. The two charges against him were sentenced to 120 months and 144 months (to be served concurrently for 144 months). Alex Mashinsky agreed to forfeit $48 million and multiple properties. Before Celsius collapsed in 2022, Alex Mashinsky repeatedly lied to investors about the security of customer deposits. The prosecution pointed out that he falsely claimed that the platform had regulatory approval, insisted that they never issued unsecured loans (when in fact they did the opposite), and manipulated the price of the CEL token for personal gain — the illicit gains related to CEL alone exceeded $48 million.
