Gox's cold wallet. Six days ago, the sender's wallet received a total of 30,371 BTC from Mt. Gox.<br><br>After a hiatus of more than a month, the recent series of movements in Mt. Gox's remaining bitcoin commenced at the end of October.<br><br>Although it is uncertain whether Monday's transfer is a component of Mt. Gox's future distributions to creditors, such movements have historically preceded repayments through <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/dealing-with-price-slippage-risks-in-decentralized-exchanges.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"83038\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">centralized exchanges<\/a> such as Kraken and Bitstamp.
