  • The Mt. Gox trustee postponed the deadline to repay creditors by one year to October 31, 2025.
  • Crypto wallets linked to the defunct Mt. Gox exchange still hold 44,900 bitcoin (BTC) worth $2.8 billion.
  • Delaying the repayment deadline could alleviate near-term concerns about selling pressure on Bitcoin’s price.

The trustee managing the assets of Mt. Gox has postponed the deadline to distribute remaining assets to creditors by one year. This news comes after Mt. Gox started repaying nearly $9 billion of recovered assets to creditors in July 2022.

Mt. Gox Assets Remain

Despite starting repayments, crypto wallets linked to Mt. Gox still hold 44,900 bitcoin (BTC) worth $2.8 billion. The trustee cited unfinished procedures and issues arising during repayments as reasons many creditors have yet to receive funds.

Potential Impact on Bitcoin Price

When news of the Mt. Gox distribution emerged earlier this year, bitcoin prices reacted negatively. Observers pondered how much creditors would sell on the open market after waiting 10 years to reclaim holdings. Delaying the deadline by a year could lessen selling pressure concerns.

Analysts’ Take

Coinbase analysts said the postponement “could assuage near-term concerns around supply overhangs.” However, they warned “downside volatility” could resume once funds begin moving again.

About Mt. Gox

Mt. Gox was once the largest crypto exchange before it imploded due to a hack in 2014. The process of repaying creditors has faced many delays over the years.

Conclusion

While the repayment delay provides some near-term relief, market uncertainty around the eventual release of billions in bitcoin from Mt. Gox wallets persists. The saga highlights ongoing risks from major hacks in crypto’s early days.
