Mt Gox, the infamous and long-defunct pioneer cryptocurrency exchange, has again stirred the crypto community by conducting yet another Bitcoin transaction. This was the first one made over the period of the last four months, according to data shared by the data aggregator Arkham Research. However, the amount of BTC moved by the platform was tiny. Besides, the data source revealed that since the collapse of the exchange 12 years ago, the market value of the remaining BTC is up by several billion US dollars. Meanwhile, Bitcoin has reclaimed the $70,000 level.Crypto Market Review: Did Shiba Inu Finally Hit Price Top? Bitcoin's Catastrophic Tumbling Might Not Be Over, Can XRP Realistically Lose $1?Arkham’s recent tweet says that Mt Gox has made a transaction of a small Bitcoin batch worth merely $500. That is 0,0071 BTC at the current exchange rate. This was the first transaction since December 2025, the tweet specifies. In total, the defunct crypto trading platform still holds $2 billion worth of Bitcoin – all that crypto was originally held on the exchange by its users. Arkham also pointed out that at the current BTC/USD exchange rate the value of the Bitcoin held by Mt. Gox is a whopping $10 billion up since the time when the exchange collapsed back in 2014. Arkham also reminded the audience that the deadline for distributing the remaining Bitcoin among its former clients is December 31 of this year. However, Mt Gox has several times postponed this “deadline” due to regulatory hindrances.Mt. Gox has moved a total of $500 of BTC today, their first move in over 4 months. They still hold over $2 BILLION of BTC that was originally held by users of the now-defunct exchange. A report recently published by several sources, including on-chain data agency CryptoQuant, the world’s largest crypto is now showing “the longest decoupling from the S&P 500 since 2020.”“This divergence highlights how much the crypto market has already suffered, well before the S&P 500 recently started to correct.” – ByWhile the stock market, oil, and gold are suffering a massive strike of volatility over the escalating tensions in the Middle East region, Bitcoin has shown the smallest fall back among financial markets as it dropped from $70,000 to below $68,000 earlier today and then rebounded a little, staging a small recovery. At the time of this writing, Bitcoin is back above the $70,000 level. GM. Bitcoin is showing almost no volatility, while stocks are down and gold is down even more. Isn’t that weird? How do you explain this?A possible reason for Bitcoin’s strength here is the maturing dynamics the crypto market has shown lately. This includes strong and big ETF inflows, derivatives hedging and treasury companies continuing to accumulate Bitcoin and Ethereum .
