The transfer represents the first significant on-chain movement from Mt. Gox-related wallets in the past five years, ahead of the October 2024 repayment deadline.
Collapsed cryptocurrency exchange Mt. Gox moved $9.62 billion worth of Bitcoin into a new wallet, raising hopes among creditors.
The 141,686 Bitcoin (BTC) was consolidated into wallet “1Jbez" from several other cold wallets associated with Mt. Gox.
These transfers are seen as a potential indication that users who have been unable to access their funds since 2014, when Mt. Gox suspended trading and withdrawals, might finally be repaid.
