Mt. Gox Pushes Back Creditor Repayments to October 2026
Mt. Gox, the long-defunct bitcoin exchange, has once again delayed its creditor repayments, extending the deadline to October 31, 2026, from the previously planned October 31, 2025, according to an announcement released Monday.
The exchange’s rehabilitation trustee said the Tokyo District Court approved the extension to allow more time to complete repayments “to the extent reasonably practicable.”
Mt. Gox noted that it has already processed the majority of repayments under its Base, Early Lump-Sum, and Intermediate programs for creditors who fulfilled all procedural requirements without issue. The remaining distributions are expected to follow under the new timeline.
The delay marks another setback in the exchange’s decade-long rehabilitation process. Once the largest bitcoin trading platform globally, Mt. Gox collapsed in 2014 after losing around 850,000 BTC in a security breach, triggering one of crypto’s earliest crises.
At the time of writing, bitcoin (BTC) traded at approximately $111,540, CoinDesk data showed.
