About
Celsius (CEL)

Celsius Network, with its native CEL token, emerged as a major centralized finance (CeFi) platform designed to bridge the gap between traditional banking and the world of digital assets. Its primary function was to offer users the ability to earn yield on their cryptocurrency holdings and to take out crypto-collateralized loans. The platform operated on a custodial basis, managing user funds to generate interest income through lending activities to institutional borrowers. This model positioned it as a user-friendly alternative for crypto holders seeking to put their assets to work without navigating complex DeFi protocols.

The CEL token was the core of its loyalty and rewards system. As a utility token, holding and using CEL provided tangible benefits within the Celsius ecosystem, such as preferential interest rates for both earning and borrowing. Users could receive higher yields on their deposited assets and lower rates on loans, with rewards often distributed weekly in the form of CEL. This tokenomics structure was designed to incentivize user loyalty and drive demand for the native asset. However, the platform faced significant operational challenges and market pressures, which ultimately led to a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, profoundly impacting its users and reshaping the narrative around risk in the CeFi lending industry.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the primary method for purchasing Celsius (CEL) with Bulgarian Lev (BGN)?

    A direct BGN/CEL trading pair is rare. The most common method is using a fiat on-ramp on a cryptocurrency exchange that accepts BGN deposits, often via SEPA transfer. Users typically convert BGN to a major currency like EUR or a stablecoin (e.g., USDT), and then use that asset to trade for CEL on the exchange's order book. This process requires full KYC/AML compliance.

  • What are the risks associated with trading the BGN/CEL pair, considering Celsius Network's history?

    Trading CEL is highly speculative due to the bankruptcy of Celsius Network. The original utility of the token is effectively gone. This digital asset experiences extreme price volatility, thin liquidity on the few exchanges where it's still listed, and is influenced by legal proceedings and bankruptcy developments. Converting BGN to trade CEL carries significant risk of capital loss.

  • Are there specific Bulgarian regulations to consider when using BGN for crypto transactions?

    Yes, Bulgaria follows EU-wide AMLD5 directives, which mandate strict KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) procedures for all cryptocurrency exchanges operating within the country. When using a BGN fiat on-ramp, expect to provide identity verification. Additionally, profits from digital asset trading may be subject to capital gains tax in Bulgaria, so it is advisable to consult with a local tax professional.

  • What was the original utility of the CEL token on the Celsius Network platform?

    The CEL token was an integral part of the Celsius Network, a crypto lending platform. Its primary utility was to provide users with enhanced benefits through a loyalty tier system. By holding CEL, users could earn higher yield rates on their deposited digital assets (earn in-kind rewards), get discounts on crypto-backed loan interest rates, and receive weekly interest payments.

  • After acquiring CEL, what is the best security practice for storing this digital asset?

    The most secure method for storing any digital asset, including CEL, is to move it off the cryptocurrency exchange and into a personal digital wallet where you control the private keys. Hardware wallets (cold storage) offer the highest level of security against online threats. This practice of self-custody ensures that your assets are not compromised in the event of an exchange failure.

  • What type of blockchain is the CEL token based on, and what does that imply for transactions?

    The CEL token is an ERC-20 token, which means it is built on the Ethereum blockchain. This implies that all CEL transactions are recorded on the Ethereum public ledger and require Ethereum's native currency, Ether (ETH), to pay for transaction fees, known as 'gas'. Transaction confirmation times and costs (Gwei) will vary depending on the congestion of the Ethereum network.
