Bankrupt crypto lender Celsius Network gets almost 30 potential bidders for its retail platform and mining businesses.
According to a company presentation, Celsius’ advisors contacted over 125 parties, with 30 potential bidders executing non-disclosure agreements.
As of November 25, 2022, Celsius holds crypto worth approximately $2.6 billion. This includes over $1 billion in ETH and stETH and roughly $630 million in BTC and WBTC.
The value of Celsius’ total assets, which also include non-crypto assets, is still $1.2 billion less than the sum of its debts.
Whether they will sell the Celsius in whole, in parts, or under a different restructuring strategy, all of these are still up in the air for Celsius advisors.
They plan to negotiate with prospective bidders in the upcoming weeks before announcing if a sale will take place in the middle of January.
Celsius also received a number of single-asset bids. The auction for Celsius’ assets has been postponed from its intended date of Dec. 15 to Jan. 10 due to the bidding deadline being exceeded on Dec. 12.
