Mt. Gox Delays Bitcoin Creditor Settlements to Late 2026

Mt. Gox Extends Creditor Repayment Deadline to Late 2026

Defunct crypto exchange Mt. Gox has postponed the deadline for creditor repayments by another year, moving it from October 31, 2025, to October 31, 2026, according to an announcement published Monday.

The exchange’s rehabilitation trustee said the extension, approved by the court, was necessary to ensure repayments are made “to the extent reasonably practicable.”

Mt. Gox noted that most of the Base, Early Lump-Sum, and Intermediate Repayments have already been processed for eligible creditors who completed the required steps without complications. Remaining repayments are still being finalized.

The delay adds another chapter to one of crypto’s longest-running sagas. Once the largest bitcoin exchange globally, Mt. Gox collapsed in 2014 following a major hack that resulted in the loss of around 850,000 BTC.

At the time of writing, bitcoin (BTC) was trading near $111,540, CoinDesk data show.
