Gox, the crypto exchange that failed due to a hack nine years ago, have elected to get their bankruptcy recovery paid out mostly in bitcoin (BTC), according to people familiar with the matter. This decision could soothe longstanding fears that a wave of simultaneous liquidations tied to Mt. Gox bankruptcy recoveries could drive down BTC's price.
