Mt Gox Wallets Make Bitcoin Moves Ahead of Repayments
π Arkham Intelligence reports minor transactions from Mt Gox wallets just before the scheduled $9 billion bitcoin repayments. Over the past few hours, three wallets associated with the defunct exchange moved small amounts, with the largest being just $24 worth of bitcoin.
π One intermediary wallet, previously consolidated with significant funds, sent $24 to Bitbank's hot wallet, with the rest moved to a new wallet. Bitbank is among the five exchanges designated to handle Mt Gox repayments, including Kraken, Bitstamp, SBI VC Trade, and Bitgo.
π° These repayments won't be directly to bitcoin holders but through these exchanges, which will make the funds available to their customers within up to 90 days.
Given the minor amount transferred, it's unclear if this was a test for larger transactions. The trustee announced repayments would start from early July, but exact dates remain unknown. π§

Arkham: No More Than $150 Million Withdrawn from Mt. Gox to Exchanges π§
π Online researchers at Arkham meticulously analyzed all fund movements related to Mt. Gox. It was found that only a small portion of the funds managed by trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi has been sent to exchanges so far. Specifically, only 2701.8 BTC ($148.4 million) has been withdrawn from Mt. Gox wallets: 1544.7 BTC ($84.9 million) was sent to Bitbank, and 1157.1 BTC ($63.6 million) was sent to an unknown counterparty, likely registered in the announced repayment program exchange to an unknown exchange.
π The remaining 44,527 BTC was moved to another Mt. Gox wallet. Thus, Mt. Gox wallets still hold a total of 138,985 BTC ($7.52 billion).
Bitcoin's price has somewhat recovered following this news and is currently at $55,500.
The varied payout timelines might also be contributing positively: Kraken (90 days), Bitstamp (60 days), BitGo (20 days), and SBI VC Trade and Bitbank (14 days).

A Bit More About Corrections
Adam Back, the legendary cryptographer and cypherpunk who communicated with Satoshi Nakamoto himself (although he never met him in person, of course), and the head of Blockstream, reminds us that previous markets often saw BTC corrections of 30% or more. Currently, it's -26%, so he advises everyone to stay calm and buy the dip. ππ°π

They account for only 4% of the total realized value since 2023 (compare the purple part of the chart to the gray).
In simpler terms, the market has sustained a 25-fold greater transfer of BTC between parties. π§
