“MtGox has been subpoenaed by the U.S. Attorney’s office in New York, the Wall Street Journal’s Christopher M. Matthews reports. An unnamed source tells him simply that federal prosecutors sent the subpoena this month. A spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s office in New York decline to comment to BI. MtGox shut trading operations last night over what it says were ‘recent news reports and the potential repercussions on MtGox’s operations and the market.’ Soon after the WSJ broke the story, Reuters reported that Japanese authorities were also looking into the Tokyo-based exchange.”
