Mt. Gox Pushes Creditor Repayments to October 2026 After Court Approval

The Tokyo court approved the delay to allow the trustee to finish processing unresolved claims.

Overview

  • The new deadline moves repayments from October 31, 2025 to October 31, 2026, marking the third postponement since the original 2023 timetable.
  • The trustee says base, early lump-sum, and intermediate repayments are largely completed for creditors who met all eligibility requirements.
  • Many claimants remain unpaid because they did not complete required procedures or encountered issues during verification and processing.
  • Mt. Gox wallets hold roughly 34,689 BTC worth about $4 billion, which observers say keeps potential supply off the market and eases near-term sell pressure.
  • About 19,500 creditors had received repayments by March 27, 2025, with distributions routed through exchanges including Kraken and Bitstamp.
