A wallet associated with the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange Mt. Gox, has transferred 2,324 bitcoins BTC $63,065.46 Bitcoin 0.17% Market capitalization $1.27 trillion VOL. 24 hours $0.26 billion worth $ 234 million to an unknown wallet. This transfer took place against the backdrop of a rising bitcoin price that surpassed the $ 100,000 mark. This was triggered by expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut following the latest inflation report.

The transfer reportedly comes after 2,623 bitcoins worth about $ 255 million were transferred from the same wallet on Wednesday to two addresses, of which about $ 10 million went to B2C2.

It is worth adding that Mt. Gox has already made similar transfers this month: on December 5, $ 2.4 billion worth of bitcoins were transferred to an unknown wallet, and the next day, more than $ 350 million. After these transactions, the Mt. Gox wallet holds about 36,000 BTC worth $ 3.6 billion. Although the purpose of these transfers remains unclear, historical data suggests that such movements often precede payments to creditors via centralized exchanges such as Bitstamp and Kraken.
