Cryptocurrency Lender Hodlanut Allegedly Found Potential Buyers
Popular cryptocurrency lending company Hodlnaut is reportedly negotiating the sale of its business and other assets with several potential investors in line.
Currently, Hodlnaut’s interim judicial managers are in the process of negotiating NDAs with potential investors.
An NDA (non-disclosure agreement) is a legally binding contract establishing a confidential relationship in which the parties agree that sensitive information they may obtain will not be disclosed to any other.
According to a Bloomberg report, a number of interested parties have inquired about purchasing Hodlnaut and its claims against the defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX.
The troubled crypto lender owed around $160 million to companies and entities. Among that list are well-known names such as Algorand Foundation, Samtrade Custodian, S.A.M. Fintech, and Jean-Marc Tremeaux, as of 9 December 2022.
Data shows that Hodlnaut held 514 Bitcoin (BTC), 1,395 Ether (ETH), 280,348 USD Coin (USDC), and 1,001 FTT on the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX.
The company was forced into insolvency after the 2022 bear market and the following liquidity crisis.

Hodlnaut wasn’t the only crypto lender that fell victim to the harsh crypto winter – industry giants such as Celsius Network, BlockFi, Genesis, Vauld also came across serious financial troubles, which led to bankruptcy.
