Neither firm immediately replied to CoinDesk's request for comment as to why the power was not delivered.in October 2022 as it was running low on cash. In December, it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
Technically, the deal will see Priority Power Management"get an allowed secured claim for $20.8 million, which is going to be deemed paid in full by the transfer of all the debtors' interest in the equipment," said federal Judge David Jones of the Southern District of Texas at a Monday hearing.
