Mt. Gox said on Friday that it has started repayments to customers, ending a near 10-year long wait for some users to get their crypto back.
The defunct crypto exchange was once the world’s top crypto exchange, handling over 70% of all bitcoin (BTC) transactions in its early years.
The exchange went bankrupt after a hack in early 2014 resulting in the loss of an estimated 740,000 bitcoin.
The news of the repayments have added selling pressure on bitcoin and the larger crypto market after Mt. Gox announced last month its intention to start repayments.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
