Patrick Nash mentioned that recovery plans do not include undergoing total liquidation. According to him, the lender does not intend to force their customers to take their recovery in fiat currency.
As the crypto market downturn continues, Nash is of the opinion that users would choose to go long in this crypto winter. Users shall also have the “opportunity to realise their recovery” once the broader macroeconomic conditions start to look up.
Patrick Nash added,
In a world where the crypto market rebounds, the mining business has the potential to be quite valuable.
The crypto lender had filed for Chapter 11 and listed a $1.19 billion deficit on its balance sheet. The business model which Celsius operated was severely inspected after a sell-off that occurred owing to downfall of important tokens such as terraUSD and Luna two months ago.
