◆◆◆ About the Company's Recent Initiative ◆◆◆
On September 5, 2024, the company announced a new project in collaboration with international institutions to build a cross-border payment infrastructure. By utilizing stablecoins—digital currencies pegged to legal tender—the company aims to enable fast, low-cost, and convenient international remittances.
Since its founding in 2018, the company has pursued R&D in deep tech and business opportunities with the mission of creating a "Japan-born, global deep tech infrastructure" that becomes the industry de facto standard.
The company aspires to become a decacorn (a startup with a valuation of over USD 10 billion). Achieving this goal requires success in the global deep tech space.
The aforementioned cross-border payment infrastructure marks a major first step toward this vision. With Japan leading in legal and regulatory development, the company currently holds a competitive advantage. However, as the market is vast, global competition is expected to intensify.
In this environment, the company is at the forefront of building a "Japan-born global deep tech infrastructure", and is rapidly expanding its engineering team to scale development and stay ahead in this high-stakes race.
◆◆◆ Why the Company Can Achieve This ◆◆◆
The company has already begun developing a cross-border payment infrastructure using stablecoins, in collaboration with international institutions that connect financial organizations around the world.
In June 2023, Japan became the first developed country to implement legislation regulating blockchain-based stablecoins. This legal clarity positions Japan—and by extension, the company—as a global leader in regulatory frameworks, which is crucial for large enterprises adopting stablecoins.
The company’s interoperability technology for cross-chain communication, developed through ongoing R&D, is world-leading and forms the technological backbone of its solutions.
