BlockFi emerges from bankruptcy and reopens wallet withdrawals.

Well folks, it looks like BlockFi is finally getting back on its feet! According to a blog post published on October 24, the crypto lending platform has emerged from bankruptcy and is now ready to pay back some of its creditors. Talk about a comeback story!

But wait, there’s more! BlockFi is not only planning to pay back its creditors, but it’s also looking to recover assets from other firms that owe it money. It’s like they’re a debt-collecting superhero, ready to swoop in and get what’s rightfully theirs. They’ve got their sights set on bankrupt crypto platforms like Three Arrows Capital (aka “3AC”) and FTX. No one can escape BlockFi’s clutches!

For all you Wallet customers out there, it’s time to rejoice. You can now log into the app and submit a withdrawal request to get your precious assets back. BlockFi is working hard to process those requests, so sit tight and prepare for the sweet taste of financial freedom.

As for the BlockFi Interest Account (BIA) and Loan customers, your time will come in early 2024. BlockFi is preparing for initial distributions in accordance with the bankruptcy plan. They’re like master chefs in the kitchen, cooking up a delicious feast of assets just for you. The first distributions may arrive in 2024, with more to follow. The amount of distributed funds will depend on BlockFi’s success in the FTX bankruptcy litigation. Fingers crossed they come out on top!

Now, let’s take a moment to reflect on how BlockFi landed in this situation in the first place. It all started in mid-2022 when the Terra stablecoin collapsed, causing liquidity problems for BlockFi. But fear not, because FTX came to the rescue with a massive $400 million credit line. Talk about being a knight in shining armor!

Unfortunately, FTX itself went bankrupt in November, and it took BlockFi down with it. It’s like a chain reaction of financial turmoil. But hey, every dark cloud has a silver lining, right? On August 17, a U.S. court gave the green light for BlockFi to repay its U.S.-based Wallet customers. The court-approved plan aimed to wind down the company and repay its loyal creditors. However, at that time, customers were still unable to withdraw their funds. The good news is that international users can now join the withdrawal party. International readers, rejoice!

In conclusion, it’s time to celebrate the triumphant return of BlockFi. They’re back in business, ready to pay back their creditors, and even looking to recover assets from other firms. The Wallet customers can now submit their withdrawal requests, while BIA and Loan customers have their distributions planned for early 2024. Keep an eye on the updates, as the amount of distributed funds will depend on BlockFi’s legal battles. But for now, let’s raise a glass and toast to BlockFi’s resurrection!
