Kraken users have finally <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgoxinsolvency/comments/1eac21h/kraken_btc_arrived/?rdt=43816" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">started</a> receiving their Bitcoin from Mt. Gox. Bitstamp users, on the other hand, are still waiting.
Mt. Gox, which used to be the largest Bitcoin exchange in the world, went bankrupt in 2014 after losing 850,000 BTC due to hacking and mismanagement.&nbsp;
This disaster left creditors in a lurch, and they have been waiting for years to get their Bitcoin back. Back in its prime, Mt. Gox was handling over 70% of all Bitcoin transactions.&nbsp;
But it all came crashing down when the exchange filed for bankruptcy after losing about 850,000 BTC, worth $450 million at that time. 
Since then, creditors have been eagerly waiting for their Bitcoin to be returned. The process has been slow, complicated, and filled with legal battles.
So far, $3 billion has already been distributed, leaving around $5.8 billion still to be paid. Kraken has confirmed that they received the funds and will credit user accounts within 7-14 days.&nbsp;
This means that users with claims at Mt. Gox will soon see their Bitcoin reflected in their Kraken accounts, making it ready for trading or selling. A Kraken spokesperson said:&nbsp;
<blockquote>
 “We’re committed to ensuring our users get their Bitcoin as quickly as possible.”
</blockquote>
The distribution has been uneven, with the top creditors set to receive a larger portion of the remaining Bitcoin. This disparity has led to frustrations and questions about the fairness of the process.
Nobuaki Kobayashi, responsible for managing the repayment process, is making sure that the funds are distributed according to the claims filed by creditors. 
There are still 90,344 BTC, worth approximately $5.77 billion, in Mt. Gox’s wallets waiting to be distributed.
