Mt Gox extends three repayment deadlines to October 2027

Mt Gox rehabilitation trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi has moved the deadline for Base Repayment, Early Lump-Sum Repayment and Intermediate Repayment from 31 October 2026 to 31 October 2027, Japan Standard Time. The 16 October notice says the court permitted the extension to accommodate creditors whose payments remain unresolved.[1]

The trustee says these repayments are largely complete for creditors who finished the required procedures without processing problems, apart from certain repayment types. Others still need to complete steps or resolve difficulties. The notice gives no individual payment date or updated unpaid balance. The official Mt Gox website continued to display the 2027 extension when checked on 29 October.[1][4]

The receiving account remains part of the payment process

The trustee's March 2025 operational notice explains the dependencies behind crypto distributions. Its conditions cover creditor records, account validity, an exchange's acceptance of the agency receipt arrangement, coordination with the trustee and safe execution. Those published conditions help explain why extending a calendar deadline alone cannot establish that a particular payment is ready.[2]

The March 2025 notice reported BTC and BCH repayments to more than 19,500 creditors and separately described cash distributions from sales for some eligible claims. That dated count supplies background to the repayment process; the October 2026 extension gives no new total.[2][1]

For account-specific questions, the trustee directs creditors to the FAQ inquiry form inside claims.mtgox.com. A public inquiry route is available, but the notice says identity verification can be harder without signing in and responses may be delayed.[1]

The trustee's standing fraud alert is also relevant during an extended claims process: it identifies mtgox.com, claims.mtgox.com and material.mtgox.com as official sites and warns about false account-migration and withdrawal instructions. Creditors can use the official claims system to resolve their own outstanding steps without relying on an unsolicited payment link.[3]
