Gemini Wins Arbitration Ruling; Collapse of Earn Lending Program Not Deemed Fault
According to CNBC, an arbitrator ruled on August 12 that cryptocurrency exchange Gemini was not at fault in the collapse of its Earn lending program, citing insufficient evidence that it misled users or failed to conduct due diligence on its primary lending partner, Genesis Global Capital. A user had previously filed a claim against Gemini in late 2024. Launched in 2021, the Earn program offered annualized yields of up to 7.4%, but crypto market weakness in 2022 led Gemini to suspend withdrawals, impacting over 300,000 users. Following this, Gemini reached a settlement with Genesis, and Earn users have recovered $2.18 billion in digital assets, accounting for approximately 97% of the debt. More than ten related disputes involving Gemini currently remain unresolved.

The plaintiffs had argued that the court has jurisdiction to hear their state law claims under the Class Action Fairness Act. Judge Stefan Underhill accepted this argument and reopened the relevant state law claims.The case revolves around the defunct Genesis Yield lending program, which allowed users to deposit crypto assets and earn interest. Investors allege that Silbert, DCG, and other defendants misled customers about the company's financial health and risk controls before Genesis suspended withdrawals and filed for bankruptcy in early 2023.However, not all state law claims were revived.
