The sale of Mediapolis' land, on which it intended to build a theme park, will help Clear recover as much as €2.68m of the €8.21m of debt from the defunct Italian firm.
"The company will shortly commence negotiations with the receiver to establish the most appropriate strategy to ensure a satisfactory conclusion is reached for Clear Leisure and the other creditors," the group said on Tuesday.
Clear Leisure also advised investors that the company's bitcoin mining data centre had been shipped to Serbia, where it was currently in customs ahead of arriving on site "later this week".
Following the successful testing of the unit in Italy, it was expected to be running at full capacity for Bitcoin extraction within a few days of arrival.
