OKWave is a popular Japanese question and answer social website, and no stranger to bitcoin, having integrated a bitcoin tipping feature to their Arigato platform last year. The company announced an alliance with San Francisco-based venture and bitcoin company Breadwallet LLC today, giving their website added functionality and a high-quality integrated solution for user bitcoin wallets.

Founded in 1999, OKWave is Japan's first and largest Q&A site, much like Quora or Yahoo Answers, but with 45 million users as of last year, making it one of the top 150 websites in Japan, according to Alexa. The company employs 184 people and had ¥979 million in capital as of July 2015. Among its shareholders are Microsoft Corporation and Rakuten Inc. The company has been listed on the Nagoya Stock Exchange since June 2006.
