Celsius to sell crypto platform amid Mashinsky court battle

Celsius has filed court docs against founder Alex Mashinsky alleging millions lost to fraud as it reached a deal to sell its retail platform.

A judge-appointed independent investigator has said Celsius used millions of client funds to keep its Ponzi scheme running.
