At least the Japanese government is better than the other governments. So far the regulation of Bitcoin and other forms of crypto-currency in Japan hasn't caused any serious issues to the Bitcoin users there. On the other hand, corrupt governments such as those in South Korea and India has tried to ban Bitcoin.
What I know is that there's really no ban on South Korea and India rather it was just regulation, or am I wrong. Those FUD makers are very good at doing their job. Anyway, Japan is very open to crypto even with had happened to the exchange based from them another good news I guess.
