Defunct Bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox has formally entered civil rehabilitation proceedings, officials announced June 22.Read more: https://cointelegraph.com/news/mt-gox-crypto-exchange-begins-civil-rehabilitation-proceedings-ends-bitcoin-sell-offsA statement and accompanying documentation confirm the move, which will see attorney Nobuaki Kobayashi act as civil rehabilitation trustee.
Kobayashi was responsible for selling vast tranches of Bitcoin reserves beginning Q4 last year to reimburse Mt. Gox users who lost money in the exchange’s mass hack in late 2013. The sell-offs appeared to have a conspicuous effect on markets, Bitcoin prices tumbling immediately following each transaction, which Kobayashi performed on major exchanges.
“The power and authority to administer and dispose of MTGOX’s assets is still vested exclusively in me, and I will implement the civil rehabilitation proceedings, including the administration of MTGOX’s assets and the investigation of claims, subject to the Tokyo District Court’s supervision,” Kobayashi wrote in the new documentation.
However, due to the bankruptcy proceedings now being halted as part of the civil rehabilitation, Kobayashi will not sell any further bitcoins, with users set to receive compensation in BTC instead of fiat currency as originally intended.
“...In the civil 2 rehabilitation proceedings in this matter, claims seeking a refund of Bitcoins (“Bitcoin Claims”) will also not be converted into monetary claims after the commencement of the civil rehabilitation proceedings,” Kobayashi continues.
Finally Mt Gox will end their merciless selling. It seemed like everytime bitcoin started picking up steam for the past 8 months Mt Gox was there to shit all over it. Unfortunately after reading this news I went to go check the price and it looks like this news hasn't given traders the confidence to buy. I see a red line falling off a cliff right now. Ugh such is crypto, HODL till it comes back up.

Hey man, that's good news. I never understood why those a-holes didnt just arrange a private sale, or several private sales if need be.
They could have negotiated a more favourable private price, and there has to have been people that were willing and able to buy all of it. Rather than saturating the market and killing the price.
UNLESS, that was exactly the plan...
