Such transfers can precede auctions, compliance actions, or other administrative steps, with minor movements, just like major ones, capable of influencing market sentiment for linked tokens.

On October 27, Mt. Gox announced that Bitcoin repayments will now occur by October 31, 2026. This locks 34,689 BTC, approximately $4 billion, and temporarily removes a significant source of potential selling pressure. “It has become desirable to make the repayments to such rehabilitation creditors to the extent reasonably practicable,” rehabilitation trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi stated in the letter, citing court approval for the one-year extension. Analysts say the delay calms Mt. Gox FUD and provides near-term market clarity. By pushing the next major liquidity event out by a year, investors gain stability and confidence amid delayed selling pressure. The post US Govt and Mt.
