Bitstamp is one of the five trading platforms that Mt.Gox has cooperated with to return funds, which shows that it is another new repayment.
On the other hand, according to the latest feedback from Mt. Gox creditors on Telegram today, they have received Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash transfers in their Kraken accounts, which means they can start trading these assets freely.
Dongzhong reported on July 16 that Mt. Gox transferred 48,641 Bitcoins, which was later confirmed to be distributed to creditors by the Kraken exchange. At the time, the exchange expected creditors to receive funds within one to two weeks, and progress appears to be continuing.
