Galaxy Digital is paying $44.1 million to buy Celsius Network's GK8 business — more than 60% lower than what the bankrupt crypto lender paid to acquire the self-custody platform just last year.

A federal judge will soon decide whether depositors at Celsius Network gave up ownership of their cryptocurrencies in exchange for interest payments, a key legal issue that could echo through other crypto bankruptcies.
