USBTC is part of the Fahrenheit LLC coalition that received the bankruptcy court’s approval to acquire insolvent lender Celsius Network. The assets were previously valued at around $2 billion. Arrington Capital, Proof Group Capital Management, Steven Kokinos, and Ravi Kaza are also part of the Fahrenheit consortium.

Asher Genoot, President of USBTC, said:

“The opportunity to manage the Celsius assets marked a defining milestone. Together with Fahrenheit, we envision a future where Bitcoin mining is not just profitable but sustainable and industry-advancing.”
