Mt. Gox says it found 200,000 bitcoins in 'forgotten' wallet

If I remember correctly, some of them have been liquidated already for paying legal costs and such, that's why there's only ~140,000 BTC today for disbursement. Or something to that effect.

Thx for the explanation. Sounds totally legit to just find a wallet with 200k coins lol

Ok 2014 such things may have been more realistic

The Mt. Gox case has been a rollercoaster of a ride for the crypto market. Since the creditors voted on the trustee plan for the rehabilitation process, the crypto community has been closely monitoring the development. This is because the voting resulted in about 140,000 BTC being released towards repaying the creditors.
