Bankrupt crypto lender Genesis has sought court approval for its proposed settlement agreement with collapsed crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC), according to a Nov. 9 court filing.

Under the agreement, 3AC will have an allowed general unsecured claim of $33 million against the bankrupt lender instead of the previous over $1 billion claim against Genesis. Besides that, Genesis will also relinquish all of its claims and entitlements to an undisclosed amount of Avalanche’s AVAX tokens and Near Protocol’s NEAR. The bankrupt firms will also “mutually release each other” from any remaining liabilities.

The beleaguered lender explained that the settlement was necessary to provide a smooth path for its Chapter 11 reorganization plans and to eliminate any risks and expenses that litigation might have brought.

According to the filing:

“The proposed settlement will, among other benefits to the Genesis Debtors’ estates, significantly smooth the path to confirmation of the Genesis Debtors’ chapter 11 plan of reorganization, prompt distributions thereunder, and eliminate the risks, expenses, and uncertainty associated with protracted litigation among the Parties.”

Genesis explained that 3AC’s $1 billion claim against it was the largest after it had resolved that of the failed crypto exchange FTX. CryptoSlate reported that FTX settled its claims with the lender for $175 million.

The company further said 3AC was one of its largest borrowers before its collapse. Per the filing, the hedge fund borrowed over $2 billion between 2020 and 2022 and still owed about $1.2 billion in unsecured claims despite the foreclosure of its collateral last year.

The proposed settlement agreement was filed at the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and still requires Judge Sean Lane’s approval.

Other creditors like Gemini can object to this settlement before Nov. 24, and a hearing has been scheduled for Nov. 30, where the parties will have a chance to argue against the settlement terms before implementation.
