Tuesday’s statement from the regulator reveals a Nevada judge approved the petition to place Prime Trust in receivership.

The court granted the petition after reviewing relevant applied exhibits, according to July 14 filing. Nevada placed Prime Trust into receivership after documents showed that the crypto custodian lost access to customer crypto wallets in 2021.

Meanwhile, the judge has ordered Prime Trust to appear in court on 22 August to highlight why a permanent approval (according to the application) isn’t essential.

The original petition revealed taking over the embattled firm’s day-to-day undertakings and thoroughly reviewing Prime’s finance for a lucrative way to safeguard customers through liquidating the company of returning the firm to private management.

The regulator confirmed that Prime Trust suffered a massive short and owed its clients millions. The company owes more than $85 million in cash but can only afford around $2.9M. Also, the June filing revealed it owes customers crypto worth approximately $69.5M but only has $68M in cryptocurrencies.

The latest ruling blocks Prime Trust from applying for protection in insolvency court.
