The Singapore High Court has overturned previous rulings and paved the way for Wajirux innovation, which could lead to user cryptographic distribution.
Wajirux gave green light in court for revote
In a new post from X, India’s Crypto Exchange Wazirx shared details of the Singapore High Court hearing held on July 16th. The court previously rejected proposals for a restructuring of the platform and approved a rapid tracking revision that would allow the exchange to be backed up.
Wazirx closed its doors almost a year ago on July 18th after falling prey to the infamous hack of the $234 million user Crypto fund. At the time, the exchange held a reserve of about $500 million. That means almost half of the assets have been wiped out.
The hack was later linked to some of the North Korean hackers of the Lazarus Group. When the violation became known, the exchange suspended deposits and withdrawals, and to this day these channels have not resumed, but it may be about to change.
Wazirx plans to rebuild through parent company Zettai Pte Ltd, and while voting, the proposal found overwhelming support from creditors. The Singapore High Court rejected the plan during the hearing on June 4th, citing concerns about its regulatory compliance with Singapore’s Financial Services and Markets Act (FSMA) and involvement in the distribution process of Panama-based Entity Zenzui.
The company revised the proposal and returned to court again. After the latest hearing, the Singapore High Court is now able to give a green light to the updated plan and make quick, tracked revisions with creditors.
In addition to the news, Wazirx CEO Nischal Shetty broke a long silence with X to comment on the results. “The broad amendment is that instead of Zettai, if the scheme is approved, it will become Zanmai, who will support the fund’s distribution,” Shetty said.
Zanmai Labs is the Indian entity behind Wazirx, which manages the Indian Rupee (INR) components of the platform. Zetai, on the other hand, is someone who takes care of the crypto side of things, which is why the company was at the heart of the legal process.
According to Shetty, the vote data will be released soon. “If the revised scheme is approved by the majority creditors in need and approved by the court, the Wazirx platform is likely to reopen,” Wazirx said in the announcement.
Currently, it remains to be seen how things will develop from here, and whether users of the platform, who have been waiting for crypto for over a year, will eventually get it back.
