BlockFi Trust Company LLC is immensely pleased to announce that an agreement has been reached between the company's Chapter 11 Trustee and the United States Department of Justice, resulting in the dismissal of a $35 million lawsuit.
BlockBeats News, July 12th, the BlockFi trustee has reached an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to dismiss a lawsuit involving a $35 million cryptocurrency asset transfer. New Jersey Bankruptcy Court Judge Michael B. Kaplan approved the agreement on Friday. The case stemmed from a May 2023 incident when the DOJ attempted to seize funds in BlockFi accounts belonging to two Estonian citizens, alleging a connection to an ongoing criminal fraud case.
Under the terms of the settlement, the case has been "dismissed with prejudice," and each party will bear its own legal fees. It is worth noting that BlockFi declared bankruptcy following the FTX collapse in November 2022 and currently owes approximately $10 billion to around 100,000 creditors. The deadline for customers to withdraw remaining cryptocurrency assets has been set for April 28, 2024. (Cointelegraph)
