user1577: I was wondering why MtGox is a Japanese company. The founder was American, and the current owner is French, so is there a special reason why Japan was attractive for them?

user558: Mtgox owner was already in japan and already had his company there when he decided to buy mtgox from historical owner Jed in 2011.
