 The creditors of bankrupt cryptocurrency lender <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/insolvent-celsius-network-converts-25-million-worth-of-altcoins/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Celsius</a> and the Series B holders have agreed on a plan to disburse $25 million to the shareholders, with $24 million going towards legal fees and the remaining $1 million being split evenly among the parties. 
 While the terms of the sale to <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/galaxy-digitals-mike-novogratz-backs-blackrocks-spot-bitcoin-etf/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Galaxy Digital</a> of the self-custody platform GK8 were not made public as part of Celsius’ bankruptcy filing. Galaxy spokesperson Michael Wursthorn had previously told that the price was much less than the $115M Celsius purchased for. 
 The Series B funding round for the insolvent crypto lender was completed in November of 2021. The round, which was oversubscribed and increased the rise from $400 million to $750 million, was headed by growth equity company <a href="https://www.westcap.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Westcap</a> and one of Quebec’s pension funds.

 At first, some Series B shareholders complained that the $24 million allotted wasn’t enough to pay their legal fees. While others said that the $1 million was an unjust “windfall” for certain holders. 
 In a court filing, the largest group of Series B shareholders said they intend to split the settlement’s $1 million in half with all preferred shareholders. They argued that the court should overrule any objections and approve the settlement so that the bankruptcy case can continue.
