Goldman is considering helping an investor raise approximately $2b to snap up distressed assets stuck in limbo from troubled digital asset lender Celsius, according to two sources familiar with the matter. The deal — which one source said likely would occur via the investment bank’s asset management unit — could see investors purchase assets from Celsius at a discount, even if the lender does not declare bankruptcy.
“Goldman didn’t want to buy into the top of the market,” one source said. “This is more their style.”
