News about Mt. Gox

Mt. Gox's rehabilitation trustee, Nobuaki Kobayashi, has pushed the repayment deadline back one year to October 31, 2027, with a Tokyo court's approval, because many creditors have not completed the required procedures or ran into problems. It is the fourth one-year extension, and about 19,500 creditors had received funds by the October 2026 deadline. Arkham data shows wallets linked to Mt. Gox still hold about 34,388 BTC, worth roughly $2.8 billion, with no transfers since June apart from a move of 10,422.65 BTC, mostly to a new wallet. Observers now see the remaining coins as a smaller risk, with one analyst calling the repayments 'more of a recurring headline than a real source of downside pressure.'

Mt. Gox has pushed its creditor repayment deadline from October 31, 2026 to October 31, 2027, after the Tokyo District Court approved the change for base, early lump-sum and intermediate payments, trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi said. Creditors who completed the procedures without complications have largely been repaid, except for certain payment types. Many others remain unpaid because they have not finished the required procedures, while some ran into processing issues. Mt. Gox had reported in March 2025 that more than 19,500 creditors had received repayments, and the latest notice did not say how many remain unpaid. Arkham Intelligence data show wallets attributed to Mt. Gox still hold about 34,400 BTC, worth roughly $2.8 billion as of Tuesday.
