The proposal from the U.S. division of the largest cryptocurrency exchange "sets a clear path forward for Voyager customers' funds to be unlocked as soon as possible, and returned to them in the form of the cryptocurrencies previously held in their Voyager accounts," according to an official post from Binance.US.

Binance.US will provide $10 million as a gesture of good faith and up to $15 million to cover certain costs as reimbursement to Voyager.

Voyager filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July due to its significant exposure of around $650 million to Three Arrows Capital.

Disclosure: Benzinga CEO Jason Raznick is a member of the unsecured creditor committee in the Voyager Digital bankruptcy case.
