“Mt. Gox, the Japanese-run online trading floor that had $5 million seized by federal agents earlier this year, says that it’s out another $5.3 million. At the end of February, Mt. Gox chose CoinLab as its North American agent. The idea was that customers in the U.S. and Canada would be able to use CoinLab as a gateway to the Mt. Gox exchange. But the relationship didn’t last long. By April, it had devolved into a messy $75 million lawsuit. According to Mt. Gox, its customers deposited about $12,800,000 into CoinLab bank accounts, and while CoinLab has handed over most of that money, it’s still sitting on $5.3 million.”
