<p>Mt. Gox is finally repaying victims who lost funds due to multiple hack attempts, but <strong>BTC Investors</strong> seem nervous about it. The failed exchange might plan to distribute 140,000 Bitcoins, valued at around $9 billion. Several BTC holders and crypto experts worry that recipients might offload their crypto assets quickly after receiving them.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>It could cause a supply overhang in the crypto market and has caused sell-side pressure on Monday. The Bitcoin price fell below $61,000, breaking the major support level of $60,000. It is now trying to bounce back by taking support of the 200-day EMA.</p> 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-why-mt-gox-declared-bankruptcy-strong"><strong>Why Mt. Gox Declared Bankruptcy?</strong></h3> 
<p>Many crypto investors lost their funds due to a sudden market fall on Monday. Bitcoin, the world’s leading crypto asset, was affected more severely than altcoins. Many experts associate the drop in Bitcoin’s dominance with the <strong>impending MT Gox payouts</strong>.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>What went wrong with Mt. Gox, which was once the world’s leading Bitcoin exchange? Why did this crypto exchange become the prime target of hackers? Let’s find out.</p> 
<p>Jed McCaleb created the Mt. Gox and introduced it as a platform for trading Bitcoin and other currencies. The <strong>Failed Mt. Gox exchange </strong>claimed that it detected suspicious activity in digital wallets in February 2014. Therefore, it suspended withdrawals after discovering the loss of hundreds of thousands of Bitcoins. It was reported that the exchange lost 650,000 to 850,000 Bitcoins, valuing hundreds of millions.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Since the value of lost/stolen Bitcoins was hundreds of millions, Mt. Gox went into solvency. Once, a thriving Bitcoin exchange filed for bankruptcy on 28 February 2014. The failed crypto exchange was ordered to repay creditors and liquidate in April 2014.&nbsp;</p> 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-defunct-mt-gox-redemption-effects-on-the-bch-price-strong"><strong>Defunct Mt. Gox Redemption Effects on the BCH Price</strong></h3> 
<p>Mt. Gox reimbursements could also affect the Bitcoin Cash price as the failed BTC exchange will also make repayments in BCH tokens. Reports show it can distribute Bitcoin Cash cryptos worth over $50 million. Victims may quickly offload those tokens, negatively affecting the <strong>BCH crypto price</strong>.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Crypto experts believe the concerns of 140,000 Bitcoins distributed by Mt. Gox spooked the market. However, the influx would be less than Fidelity’s Spot Bitcoin ETF’s total holdings of 167,375 BTC.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Gumshoe (@0xGumshoe), a researcher, has tweeted that the recently tested support by Bitcoin could be the very bottom.&nbsp;</p>
