In a <a href=\"https:\/\/dcgupdate.com\/\">public statement<\/a> on January 20, DCG\u2019s owner, Barry Silbert, emphasized that all of the company\u2019s other subsidiaries, including Grayscale, are unaffected by Genesis Global Capital\u2019s financial situation and that this will not change in any manner.<\/p>\n<p>Silbert went on to state that DCG will continue to conduct business as usual and that there will be no disruptions. However, the company owes Genesis roughly $526 million, which is due in May 2023, as well as $1.1 billion that is owed based on a promissory note that is due in June 2032. Silbert also stated that DCG has every intention of meeting its commitments to Genesis even after the company undergoes restructuring.<\/p>\n<p>According to DCG, Genesis has its own independent management team, legal counsel, and financial consultants. DCG also formed a special committee of independent directors, who are in charge of the company\u2019s reorganization, and who suggested and determined that it file for chapter 11 bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The statement also clarified that \u201cneither DCG nor any of its employees, including those who sit on the Genesis board of directors, were involved in the decision to file for bankruptcy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Was this writing helpful?<\/h4>\n<h5> <span data-toggle=\"modal\" data-target=\"#myModal\">No<\/span> <span onclick=\"likeFunction()\">Yes<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/author\/elena\/\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-del=\"avatar\" alt=\"Photo of Elena R\" src=\"https:\/\/image.coinpedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/13135806\/4-300x300.jpg\" height=\"180\" width=\"180\"> <\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/author\/elena\/\">Elena R<\/a><\/h3>\n<p> Elena is an expert in technical analysis and risk management in cryptocurrency market.
