Data from the crypto intelligence platform Arkham Intel shows Mt. Gox also made a series of other transfers totaling over $16.8 million after completing the transaction. The bankrupt firm’s Bitcoin wallet now holds 34,689 BTC worth around $3.2 billion.
Mt. Gox used to handle over 70% of Bitcoin’s trading volume but it eventually ceased operation and filed for bankruptcy protection after the platform was hacked.
The exchange started paying back its creditors in July 2024 and by October 2024, declared that it has “largely completed the Base Repayment, Early Lump-Sum Repayment, and Intermediate Repayment” for creditors who have completed the necessary procedures and have not encountered issues during the repayment process.
According to a statement published in Mt. Gox’s website last month, the repayment deadline will be extended until October 31st, 2026 to accommodate other rehabilitation creditors.
