Former bankrupt crypto lender, BlockFi in partnership with Coinbase is set to roll out crypto distribution before July ends. In a post on X by BlockFi, over the coming months, it will carry out a phased distribution to its clients.
BlockFi Sets Eligibility Conditions
Notably, eligible users will get notified through their email addresses on the distribution plan while updates will be posted on the official social media channels. In the meantime, users outside of the U.S. will not get any funding as a result of the regulatory hurdles.
As for non-U.S. users, as soon as the relevant stakeholders confirm that the necessary conditions have been met, they will be settled.
“The Plan Administrator has been working tirelessly with the Joint Liquidators of BlockFi International to implement a distribution process for non-U.S. clients that complies with Bermuda regulation,” Coinbase website stated.
As per previous agreement, BlockFi and Coinbase says the distribution will span a period of one-year, beginning from when the first asset dispersed to its creditors. Significantly, in a May update, the clients of BlockFi will still be able to access their crypto withdrawals, only if they have a valid Coinbase account.
Strategic Alliances and Future Outlook
Those clients with fiat claims will get theirs processed by Kroll and its payment processing partner, Digital Disbursements, for their cash distribution.
BlockFi assured that future distributions will still be channeled through Coinbase. These will include future recoveries received from FTX and Alameda Research estates which in principle is up to $875 million.
Coinbase has been in collaboration with several payment processors. Noteworthy is the strategic alliance with Stripe, a payment processor platform. The core aim is to improve the broader financial system. Analysts are confident that the choice of Coinbase by BlockFi is strategic given its reach in the broader crypto ecosystem.
