Australians have described their utter despair in letters to a New York bankruptcy court after cryptocurrency lender Celsius Network froze their withdrawals.\n\nAnother cryptocurrency lender has filed for bankruptcy, leaving global investors desperate and in limbo.

A father of three in Australia wrote he had "his life savings in a Celsius earn account", and that he'd also convinced his father to deposit cryptocurrency assets into Celsius as a "safe haven".

Ms White was also struck by how many letters specifically cited Mr Mashinsky, and his online persona. But Claire said she struggled to find a job in the field and when trying to start her own businesses, found that Australian banks wouldn't lend to her due to a lack of local credit history.

Why am I not surprised...ponzi.

“Investors left with nothing as cryptocurrency giant Celsius goes bankrupt”. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is not. We only have to look back at ‘Pyramid’ in Victoria, that left many depositors with large losses.

Just like NFT, big scam
