Mt. Gox trustee pushes creditor repayment deadline to October 2027

Mt. Gox has pushed back its creditor repayment deadline by one full year, moving the final date from October 31, 2026, to October 31, 2027. The postponement, which represents the sixth repayment extension granted to the defunct Bitcoin exchange, received formal court permission according to an official notice issued by rehabilitation trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi.[1][2][5][6][8]

In the notice, Kobayashi stated that while base, early lump-sum, and intermediate repayments have largely been fulfilled for creditors who completed procedural requirements, many claimants have still not received payouts. Delays have been caused by creditors who have yet to complete the required verification steps, as well as separate technical complications arising during repayment processing.[2][7][8]

Approximately 34,388 BTC, valued at about $2.8 billion, remains to be disbursed to claimants, according to crypto analyst Scott Melker and Decrypt. While the extension prolongs distribution uncertainty for creditors, analyst Crypto Patel noted that the updated timetable may temporarily ease market anxiety surrounding sudden, heavy selling pressure from Mt. Gox distributions.[2][3][4][7]
