A recent update from the trustee reveals that payouts from the ongoing bankruptcy estate will happen in multiple rounds, with the first round of EUR 100 million set to begin in late July or August 2025. However, confusion persists among creditors about eligibility.
Payout Details
The initial payout will cover recognized II-rank claims only. Creditor claims will not be fully covered due to limited estate funds. Notably, III-rank creditors will not receive any payouts at this stage.
The trustee emphasized,
"Creditors must verify their identity and submit their bank details through the platform to be eligible."
Key Concerns
Many people have raised concerns regarding the legitimacy of the payout process:
Phishing Risks: Several comments on various forums have warned about potential phishing attempts related to the payout email, with one stating: "My browser security service warns me that the site is almost certainly a phishing site."
Authentication Confusion: Questions about the required CoinLoan ID have also emerged, as some creditors are unsure what this ID entails, leading one person to ask, "What is the CoinLoan ID they are asking for?"
Email Authenticity: Creditors have expressed doubts about the email source, noting discrepancies with previous communications.
Identifying the Process
Eligible creditors must use their CoinLoan ID on the trustee's dedicated website, where they will go through identity verification via Veriff. Completion of this process is essential before any funds are released. After submission, individuals will receive a confirmation document to sign and return to the bankruptcy trustee at coinloanbankrupt@.
What This Means for Creditors
The upcoming payouts bring some relief but also confusion among people awaiting funds. Concerns about security and the legitimacy of the communication only add to the challenges faced by creditors in this situation.

🔍 Creditor verification necessary for payouts to commence
While some await these funds, critical questions linger: will all eligible creditors get what they’re owed? Stay alert for any updates.
What’s on the Horizon for Creditors
The upcoming payout round could lead to a more structured approach for creditor claims. It’s estimated that around 70% of II-rank creditors will likely complete the identity verification process without significant issues, allowing the payout to proceed smoothly. However, with ongoing phishing concerns, the verification rate could dip slightly, impacting the timeline for funds distribution. Many experts believe that if the trustee implements clearer communication strategies about email authenticity, the overall trust in the process will likely increase. This could lead to further rounds of payouts in the future if estate funds allow, targeting III-rank creditors as well.
An Unlikely Comparison to a History of Trust Issues
Looking back at the recovery efforts of creditors during the early days of the dot-com bubble, one sees a striking parallel to today’s situation. Back then, many investors faced uncertainty in a rapidly changing marketplace, where personal safeguards were often overlooked, leading to multiple rounds of payouts and claims verification. Like today, investors found themselves at the mercy of trust issues and communication gaps. The most persistent among them eventually secured their due payments, mainly because they stayed vigilant and adaptable to the evolving scenario—much like the II-rank creditors must do now.
