Gemini has been maintaining a webpage to share weekly updates with the community. These relate to the progress that it has made in the negotiation with the Digital Currency Group (DCG), Creditor Committee, Unsecured Creditors Committee (UCC), and Genesis. Per the recent update posted on April 28, 2023, Gemini has initiated a 30-day mediation process with the objective of driving the final resolution at the earliest.
The Bankruptcy Judge Lane is expected to pass an order to direct the mediation process this Monday. The mediation process proposed for the resolution has set a total of two meetings before May 08, 2023. These meetings are deemed crucial because DCG owes $630 million to Genesis from May 09, 2023, to May 11, 2023. This money is estimated to send out a benefit to all the creditors who are on the board for this case.
What makes these meetings important is the fact that DCG must show an intent to settle the due. In a situation where it fails to settle the debt or comes up with a way to restructure the debt, it will risk defaulting on its obligations. In other words, while the mediation process is scheduled to last for 30 days, the parties involved must work to meet the short-term windows as efficiently as possible.
Gemini has expressed being supportive of the mediation process, with the next conference due on May 04, 2023, with the court. The mediation process will focus on the economic contribution of DCG to the bankruptcy estate for the creditors’ benefit. Gemini has also expressed its commitment to returning the funds to its community members.

Currently headquartered in New York, Gemini is a crypto exchange platform that was started by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss in 2014. The Twins can be remembered from the case wherein they sued Facebook and successfully claimed their financial share from the business. Gemini is a centralized exchange platform with over 20 digital coins listed, along with 50+ trading pairs available for traders.
There are two offerings that keep Gemini at the top: User Interface and Mobile Application. Community members can access the platform through their mobile devices. It features a seamless user interface with crisp information listed for their benefits. Buying and selling cryptocurrencies on Gemini is pretty easy compared to other platforms in the market.
Our Gemini review describes both these functionalities in detail. Additionally, it sheds light on how crypto payments are made through Gemini.
However, circling back to the mediation process, the development follows the previously published announcement on April 21, 2023, wherein it was informed that UCC had provided a report on the investigation that it has been conducting since Genesis halted the withdrawal process. This comes on November 16, 2022.

No matter the number of updates that have been published by Gemini, the community seems to be losing its patience. Many members continue asking for their funds back, while others have sarcastically said that there are people who are happy to wait for 30 days to get their money back.
