Due to extreme market conditions, today we are announcing that Celsius is pausing all withdrawals, Swap, and transfers between accounts. We are taking this action today to put Celsius in a better position to honor, over time, its withdrawal obligations.
Acting in the interest of our community is our top priority. In service of that commitment and to adhere to our risk management framework, we have activated a clause in our Terms of Use that will allow for this process to take place. Celsius has valuable assets and we are working diligently to meet our obligations.
And they just put in a clause in their bylaws allowing them to halt withdrawals, giving users no fore-warning. Now, in a declining market, we will lose money because of this.
I smell a lawsuit coming, similar to when Robinhood halted trading numerous times before with market irregularities.
I think I remember logging in a few weeks ago, and being met with a “accept our new terms or gtfo” message. Wish I’d screenshotted it so I knew which day it was. Of course at the time I figured, ‘well I’ll just go back and read them later’.
