O'Neill has explained the agreement does not cover other disputes with DCG related to the bankruptcy resolution plan.

Genesis suspended withdrawals on November 16, 2022 citing "increased demands" from customers following the collapse of FTX and hedge fund Three Arrows Capital.

The company and its subsidiaries Genesis Asia Pacific and Genesis Global Capital filed for bankruptcy in January.
