So, what about it? Does it belong to some BTC exchange? Or is it all stolen, or something?

I'm pretty sure there are lots of company and governmental bank accounts with lots of money moving through them...

This refers back to http://www.scribd.com/doc/209050732/MtGox-Situation-Crisis-S..., an allegedly leaked MtGox document detailing their crisis management strategy, where a theft of 744,408 BTC is discussed.

MtGox has about 700k+ BTC

Wasn't it said they lost 700k BTC? Also just comparing balances doesn't seem like a very strong indicator of identity to me.

Couldn't someone with a known withdrawal from mtgox use the address the money came from to trace up the blockchain? I don't know if gox used multiple wallets, but if not it should be pretty obvious where the money came from and went.
