Bitcoin mining pool Poolin has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, with court documents listing up to $500 million in liabilities as the company enters a court-supervised restructuring.
The filing was disclosed through case documents posted to the claims administration portal maintained for the proceeding, the official Poolin case page. Poolin operates as a bitcoin mining pool, aggregating hash power from individual miners who share block rewards.

Chapter 11 is a form of U.S. bankruptcy protection that allows a company to keep operating while it reorganizes its debts under court supervision, rather than being immediately shut down and liquidated. For related coverage, see DeFi Aggregator Odos to Shut Down All Services on July 30.
The court document filed in the case lists liabilities reaching as high as $500 million, establishing the scale of the obligations Poolin is seeking to restructure. For related coverage, see Binance Monitoring Tag: ACX, LSK, STX Face Risk.
Because the company chose Chapter 11 rather than a liquidation proceeding, the filing signals an attempt to reorganize and continue operating rather than wind down entirely. For related coverage, see SEC to Pay Coinbase Over Missing Gary Gensler Texts, Court Status Report Says.
The half-a-billion-dollar liability ceiling indicates the degree of financial stress on the balance sheet. For a bitcoin mining pool, where the business depends on retaining miners who contribute hash power, obligations of that size bear directly on whether operations can be sustained through the restructuring.

Poolin is a named participant in the bitcoin mining ecosystem, and a filing of this size draws attention from creditors, partners, and pool participants tracking whether the pool can maintain operational continuity.
