The former cryptocurrency exchange Mt. Gox has begun paying out customers, ending a nearly decade-long wait for some users to get their cryptocurrency back. The exchange went bankrupt after a hacker attack in 2014, which resulted in the loss of about 740,000 bitcoins. News of the payout added to selling pressure on Bitcoin and the larger crypto market after Mt. Gox announced last month its intention to begin payouts in July. Bitcoin fell to $54,000, its lowest level in five months.
