BlockFi Inc. won a few more weeks to finalize a plan to get out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy, overcoming disgruntled customers who say they should be repaid more quickly.
The cryptocurrency lender is exploring a potential sale of company assets or the possibility of getting an outside backer to support a restructuring deal, BlockFi lawyer Joshua Sussberg said in a hearing Wednesday. The company intends to file a bankruptcy-exit plan by May 15, Sussberg said.
