Participation information

Settlement Claim

Generally, persons or entities who directly invested, deposited, or otherwise acquired assets in BlockFi Interest-Bearing Accounts—including BlockFi Interest Accounts, BlockFi Private Yield, or BlockFi Private Client accounts—between 2019-01-01 and 2022-11-28, inclusive, and were injured thereby. Certain defendants, their related persons and entities, valid opt-outs, and persons without compensable damages are excluded.

No claim form or separate filing is required. The Claims Administrator reviews BlockFi’s records and allowed claims from the BlockFi Chapter 11 proceedings to determine eligibility and the pro rata distribution. Consumers who did not opt out do not need to take further action to receive an eligible payment.
