This is, of course, a perversion of the Chapter 11 process.&rdquo;</blockquote>A third group of creditors also hit back at the proposal with FTX calling the move by the fallen exchange to get back loans from its &ldquo;enterprise&rdquo; unconscionable saying that it's &ldquo;no more than throwing spaghetti against the wall to see what sticks.&rdquo;Although membership of the group remains unknown, it claims the company owes its members $2.4 billion.<h2 id="genesis-backs-the-deal-as-fair">Genesis backs the deal as fair</h2>The latest bankruptcy deal <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/dcg-reaches-preliminary-agreement-with-genesis-creditors-offering-potential-70-90-recovery.htm">announced</a> last month was tipped as a way out after months of uncertainty with Genesis's attorney describing it as a move to &ldquo;significantly smooth the path&rdquo; without huge litigation costs.&nbsp;The deal which sees Alameda Research <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/ftx-seeks-176-million-settlement-with-genesis-entities-amid-legal-dispute.htm">lay claim</a> to $175 million would have Gemini let go of $226 million against FTX.&nbsp;Gemini partnered with the Digital Currency Group (DCG) in the exchange Gemini Earn Program however, both companies have been at both ends of litigation after Gemini accused DCG of knowing about the bankruptcy of its subsidiary Genesis since 2022 and failed to disclose such information to investors.Gemini also claims that its 232,000 users are owed over $1 billion. Gemini has long been a critic of Genesis's role in the bankruptcy restructuring arguing that the company should be stripped of the monopoly of proposing a windup plan.&nbsp;
