well this is good news hopefully they will do the right thing and refund the customers. I am not sure if they are legally responsible to refund customers because didnt they declare bankruptcy not sure on all the laws.

This raises an interesting question.

Assets in BTC / debt in BTC

is not equal to

Assets in fiat / debt in fiat

which means that MtGox may be forced to sell that BTC in order to threat all creditors equal.

they have half the fiat?

& 25% of BTC ?

they need to buy more BTC to treat creditors equal
