Mt. Gox has made several large Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) transactions to the B2C2 Group, an institutional crypto trading company.

Between December 5 and December 24, Mt. Gox made systematic daily movements of 3,631.87 BTC, valued at $364.4 million, following a historic moment in Bitcoin's history. On December 5, 2024, for the first time, BTC touched the $100,000 mark.

Since $BTC broke through $100,000 for the first time on Dec 5, #MtGox has been transferring 200 $BTC or 300 $BTC to #B2C2Group every weekday.

Daily Transfers: A Structured Approach

The transfers were made daily on weekdays, with the transfer amount varying between 200 and 300 BTC daily. Some notable transactions include:

This structured transfer pattern showcases Mt. Gox’s clear plan to minimize market interference while remaining transparent. The small and frequent orders enabled the company to meet the repayment requirements without causing undue fluctuation in the cryptocurrency market.

Background: Mt. Gox’s Rehabilitation Process

Once the leading BTC trading platform, Mt Gox handled over 70% of all the BTC transactions globally before it shut down in 2014 after being hacked, leading to the loss of 740,000 BTC. Since then, the exchange has undergone many years of legal proceedings in an effort to compensate its creditors.

In July 2024, they finally began repaying creditors, although this was done under the extension of the repayment terms and conditions up to the 31st of October 2025, which was approved by the Tokyo court. This ties in with the recent transfers to the B2C2 Group as part of the repayment undertaking.

In mid-November 2024, Mt. Gox moved 6,900 BTC (around $588 million) as part of the repayment process, in another positive step.

Impact on Bitcoin Price

Interestingly, these transfers come at a time when market participants have noted the correlation between the timing and the rising price of Bitcoin. Selling pressure from creditors was anticipated, yet it did not deter the high price of Bitcoin from continuing to rise.

According to market analysts, Mt. Gox was able to avoid greater risks by transferring in smaller portions. This approach served to encourage traders and reduce the perception of BTC being dumped, ultimately allowing the Bitcoin price to maintain an upward momentum.

Mt. Gox still controls a significant amount of Bitcoins to this day, and with the repayment deadline set for October 2025, such actions will continue to impact the market. The exchange's payout plan is a logical approach to handling large crypto assets responsibly and meeting the interests of its creditors.
