Bankrupt cryptocurrency lending company, Celsius, is likely to appoint former Algorand CEO Steve Kokinos to its successor company. The new company, currently named 'NewCo', will be registered under a Delaware corporation. Its board of directors includes executives from WeWork, Credit Suisse and UBS. Celsius filed for bankruptcy protection as it owed billions to investors during the crypto downturn. Celsius creditors are in favor of Fahrenheit’s proposed takeover, which could allow investors to recover some of their lost funds.
