It actually made me laugh out loud. The statement makes it seem like MtGox was all fine and dandy until media started to talk about its shutdown. And now they say:
> We will be closely monitoring the situation and will react accordingly.
As if they're just sitting back, staring at their screen, waiting to see what will happen. Passively.
Words chosen very carefully that potentially hold a subtext. Are they hinting at a security service takedown and gag? MtGox would be a potential target if, say, someone wanted all the data to do a statistical analysis and tie MtGox accounts to SR accounts.
Way out there, but it's anyone's guess right now, and I thought I'd throw this hat in the ring.
