This article will discuss whether or not a winding-up petition or bankruptcy petition can be based upon a liquidated amount of crypto which is due and payable by one party to another (a crypto-debt).
An example of such a case could be where party A agrees to transfer 100 widgets to party B in exchange for five bitcoin. Assume party A delivers the widgets, and party B accepts receipt and raises no issue with the widgets, and does not dispute their liability to transfer five bitcoin to party B.
Introduction
There is a worrying trend in the construction industry: contractor insolvencies are on the rise.
According to a release from The Insolvency Service, the construction industry accounted for 3,213 insolvency cases in the 12 months leading up to April 2022. This equates to almost a fifth (19%) of the overall cases of insolvency and, more worryingly, these numbers are still growing. These insolvencies have occurred throughout the market but have particularly affected smaller and mid-tier contractors.
