Mt. Gox was a Tokyo-based cryptocurrency exchange that operated from 2010 to 2014. Initially created for trading cards from the game "Magic: The Gathering," it quickly became the world's largest Bitcoin exchange, handling over 70% of all Bitcoin transactions at its peak. However, in 2014, Mt. Gox suffered a massive security breach, losing hundreds of thousands of Bitcoins, which led to its bankruptcy.
Mt. Gox creditors are individuals or entities who had funds or Bitcoin stored on the Mt. Gox exchange when it collapsed in 2014. These creditors are owed compensation for their lost assets. Following the exchange's bankruptcy, a legal process known as the "rehabilitation plan" was initiated to repay these creditors. Recently, Mt. Gox has begun repaying some of its creditors in Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) through designated crypto exchanges, which are Bitbank, BitGo, Bitstamp, Kraken, and SBI VS Trade. The repayment process aims to return a portion of the lost assets to the affected users.
The Mt. Gox payouts are set to begin in July 2024, with the final settlement date expected to be October 31, 2024. This process will involve distributing Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to the verified creditors who lost their assets during the exchange's collapse in 2014. For creditors who claimed cash payments, those are completed first. BTC and BCH payments will follow and be distributed to approved crypto exchanges. The exchanges then have 90 days to apply the repayments to creditor exchange balances.
