I think if the US Government was going to seize everything of Gox's they would do it suddenly and all in one shot like they did with online poker during "Black Friday". Telegraphing their intention via obtaining an order for seizure means it's a tribulation less severe than the total destruction of Gox imo.
I agree. And if they were going after bitcoin at large, they would have shut down transfers to ALL exchanges simultaneously. This is still a strange situation.
