The company has been particularly looking into japan as the Crypto industry is big there. First by acquiring the regulated exchange BitTrade and now this move shows even more determination.

The company say they plan to “contribute to the digitalization of the Japanese securities market by integrating the company's professional financial business know-how with our security-focused blockchain technology to provide new financial assets and payment methods.”.
