Celsius creditors vote in favor of reorganization plan

The creditors involved in the Celsius bankruptcy case have voted in favor of a plan that will see funds returned to them as well as distributing equity through a new company.

Celsius Network was one of the first major casualties of the 2022 bear market, with the now-defunct crypto lender filing for bankruptcy on July 14, 2022.

Mashinsky was then arrested on the same day, following an indictment from the U.S. Department of Justice, which accused the former CEO of fraudulent financial activity, misleading investors and a number of other similar charges.
