Bittime -The US bankruptcy court has approved the Chapter 11 plan of Genesis, the bankrupt crypto lending company. This decision likely means significant financial losses for Genesis' parent company, Digital Currency Group (DCG).
Genesis Users will Receive Crypto Back
Gemini, Genesis' primary creditor and operator of the defunct Gemini Earn program, announced good news for its users. They will start receiving back the majority (97%) of the crypto assets owed to them by the end of this month.
These returns will be “in-kind,” meaning users will receive the same type of crypto they deposited, not the dollar value as of a specific date.

Objection Rejection: DCG Wants Dollar Valuation
Genesis, a crypto lending company, went bankrupt in early 2023 due to the failure of Terra/Luna and Three Arrows Capital. They filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in January 2023 and put forward a plan to pay creditors.
DCG, owner of Genesis, objected to the plan. They argue that creditors should be paid based on the dollar value of their claims at the time of the bankruptcy filing (January 2023). This would ignore subsequent crypto price increases, potentially benefiting DCG at the expense of creditors.

Judge Accepts Creditors, DCG May Appeal
Judge Sean Lane rejected DCG's objections. He highlighted the lack of sufficient funds to pay DCG once creditor claims are resolved. Although DCG could potentially appeal the decision, legal experts question its justification given its significant financial shortfall.
Gemini Earn Regains User Trust
The court decision and Gemini's "in-kind" payment approach stands in stark contrast to FTX's bankruptcy case. FTX users are currently scheduled to receive the dollar value of their claims at the time FTX files for bankruptcy, not the actual crypto they deposited. This highlights a more user-friendly approach by Gemini in navigating the bankruptcy process.
