⤴️ Mt. Gox moves $2.4B in Bitcoin as $BTC surged past $100K
Long-bankrupt crypto exchange Mt. Gox moved over 24,000 Bitcoin to an unknown address after the cryptocurrency struck above $100,000.
Long-collapsed crypto exchange Mt. Gox moved over 24,000 #Bitcoin , worth nearly 2.47 billion, to an unknown address on Dec. 5 after the cryptocurrency hit a milestone of $100,000.
Arkham Intelligence data shows the exchange moved 24,051 Bitcoin to an unknown address starting with “1N7j” at 2:45 am UTC on Dec. 5 in its first transfer since Nov. 12.
Mt. Gox’s move came just 12 minutes after Bitcoin crossed $100,000 and less than half an hour before Bitcoin hit a high of $104,000 on Coinbase at 3:08 am UTC, per TradingView.
It’s unknown why Mt. Gox — which fell into bankruptcy in early 2014 — has moved part of its holdings, but past similar moves have been the precursor to the defunct exchange giving payouts to its creditors.
