Thorn said his research suggests 75{aa99edd08dd66036bd4af6c3dbe8af9b4ab31fcc55a521c2956d094a6dcd3a48} of creditors will be taking the “early” payout in July, meaning a distribution of about 95,000 coins. Of that, Thorn believes 65,000 coins will be going to individual creditors, but he thinks they may prove more “diamond-handed” than most expect. Among the reasons, he said, is that they’ve already resisted years of “compelling and aggressive offers from claims funds,” not to mention the capital gains taxes involved given bitcoin is up 140-fold since the bankruptcy.
