You could set up in those countries, but you have to remember that the biggest market for bitcoin is USD, and if you want to accept US customers which would seem logical, you still need to register and comply with all the same things a US based company would. I'm not sure about EUR, but it wouldn't surprise me if the same were true.

Best thing to do IMO is to seek a partner who already has the relevant US licences and work with them.

Cheers, Paul.

Thank you for the advice. Our technology will allow others to build other exchanges as they will be able to connect their user interfaces to our matching engine and start working without mixing their accounting with ours nor with others'  (Multitenancy) but we want every exchange to be an independent company with an independent connection to a bank as we don't want to centralize all fiat funds (each exchange working with our matching engine will be responsible for their funds).

Being said that. We don't really care which currency we start our own exchange with as long as we start in a safe jurisdiction (adding currencies later to the system would be easy). But it is very important for us to protect our customers from a seizure and because of that we're looking for someone in those countries or in another bitcoin friendly jurisdiction.

We're facing problems dealing with banks and we would need some help. We're thinking about starting the company in a bitcoin friendly country like Panama, Uruguay, Andorra, Switzerland, Canada, Poland...
