Japan Shifts Crypto Regulation: Big Changes Ahead
Update: 2025-12-10
Description
Japan is redefining its approach to cryptocurrency regulation, shifting from treating it as a payment method to viewing it as an investment, akin to stocks or bonds. This move aims to enhance investor protection and market transparency. The Financial Services Agency, or FSA, has proposed stricter disclosure requirements for initial exchange offerings, including detailed information on token creation and distribution. The new rules also target unregistered platforms and prohibit insider trading, aligning with global standards. The FSA has also cautioned against derivatives for foreign crypto asset exchange-traded funds, indicating a cautious stance on such products.
