Cryptocurrency consortium Fahrenheit won the auction for bankrupt lender Celsius Network (CRYPTO: CEL).
The consortium is required to secure the deal with a $10 million deposit within the next three days, as per the court documents filed early Thursday morning.
Previous evaluations had estimated Celsius Network's assets to be worth around $2 billion.
Fahrenheit's successful bid includes the procurement of Celsius's institutional loan portfolio, staked cryptocurrencies, mining unit, and a selection of alternative investments.

Venture firm Arrington Capital and US Bitcoin Corp. are a part of Fahrenheit.
The Blockchain Recovery Investment Consortium, which comprises Van Eck Absolute Return Advisers Corporation and GXD Labs LLC, was selected as a standby option.
NovaWulf, a once-favored bidder, ultimately missed out.
The newly formed company will receive liquid cryptocurrency worth between $450 and $500 million. Additionally, US Bitcoin Corp is slated to develop a range of cryptocurrency mining facilities, including a new 100-megawatt plant.
