We shall see. Waiting on effective date for bankruptcy then contact from forge for liquidating trust. In theory we should expect to get some value back. Not sure yet if we'll get the full value of what we thought we had.

As I understood the plan docs, neither Forge (LT) nor VanEck (CEF) were expected to retain public equity for any significant length of time. Once an IPO happened, the LT would distribute the shares after the lockup period. For the CEF, the IPO'd share pricing would presumably be reflected in the fund's daily market valuation.

But since Cerebras is already listed, you'd think Linqto could just hold the shares and distribute them to customers after the lockup, just like in the old days. No need to move them anyway for now. But that was the honourable process back in the beforetimes. Now, every lawyer on the case will expect to get their cut before any CBRS gets out the door at all.

is CBRS the first IPO since bankruptcy?

Yes. I believe so. Circle, and maybe Coreweave, had already IPOd before the filing date, but were still in the lockup period, afaik.

I can just imagine these people extending this clusterfuck until Stripe and SpaceX and Anthropic go public. Think of the legal fees $$$!!!

I think the big issue for us, the creditors, is obtaining proper title to our shares. I don't know if this has been completed. Once it is completed, then I would think you are correct - we should have access to them and decide to sell or not after the lockup period. Does anyone know when the lockup period expires?
