Japan to further relax crypto rules by easing listings of tokens
2022/10/19 08:49
The body that governs crypto exchanges plans to allow them to list coins without going through its lengthy screening process, unless the tokens are new to Japan’s market, according to documents seen by Bloomberg News.
The relaxed rule could take effect as early as December, helping startups compete with established players by smoothing the process of listing tokens and lowering the bar for market entry. The documents outlining the changes were distributed to member firms recently.
By March 2024, the Japan Virtual and Crypto assets Exchange Association could also scrap pre-screenings for coins new to the nation, as well as for tokens issued through initial coin or exchange offerings, Vice Chairman Genki Oda said in comments he described as personal views.
“We hope the latest measure will help revitalize Japan’s crypto assets market,” he said in an interview, while also confirming the documents. Oda is president of software developer Remixpoint inc.
