Mt. Gox Pushes Creditor Repayment Deadline to October 2026

Defunct cryptocurrency exchange Mt. Gox has delayed its long-awaited creditor repayments by another year, extending the deadline to October 31, 2026, from the previously scheduled October 31, 2025.

In a notice published Monday, the court-appointed rehabilitation trustee said the extension was granted “with the permission of the court” to ensure repayments could be made “to the extent reasonably practicable.”

The trustee added that while certain categories of repayments are still pending, most of the Base Repayments, Early Lump-Sum Repayments, and Intermediate Repayments have already been processed for eligible creditors who completed the required procedures without issue.

The update marks the latest delay in the drawn-out process to return funds to users affected by Mt. Gox’s 2014 collapse — once the world’s largest bitcoin exchange.

As of writing, bitcoin (BTC) was trading around $111,540, according to CoinDesk data.
