Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Customers affected by Mt Gox's insolvency have been given more time to file their online bankruptcy claims, CoinDesk.com reported yesterday. The claim process was previously due to close at the end of May. However, a document from bankruptcy trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi, released on the former exchange's webpage today, indicated the deadline has now been extended until 12pm on 29th July (Japan time). Past this new date, affected users will only be able to view their existing bankruptcy claims online or transfer these to somebody else. "Nearer the time of distribution, the bankruptcy trustee is planning to give users an opportunity to use the system again to make changes to the details of their bankruptcy claims other than increasing the amount of the bankruptcy claims that users have filed," noted the document.
