Finalto is excited to announce the addition
of cryptocurrencies denominated in Japanese Yen to its already wide offering.
The addition of the products is another way
the company is simplifying access to the market for traders around the world.
Finalto
entered the Asian market in 2019, and has been focusing on expanding its local
offering.
The cryptocurrencies Finalto have added
are:
Symbol | Currency | Description |
XLMJPY | JPY | Stellar / JPY |
LTCJPY | JPY | Litecoin / JPY |
BCHJPY | JPY | Bitcoin Cash / JPY |
DOTJPY | JPY | Polkadot / JPY |
DOGJPY | JPY | Dogecoin / JPY |
XRPJPY | JPY | Ripple / JPY |
ADAJPY | JPY | Cardano / JPY |
BNBJPY | JPY | BNB / JPY |
ETHJPY | JPY | Ethereum / JPY |
Finalto’s Chief Markets Analyst, Neil
Wilson, says:
“Crypto markets have been extremely volatile in 2022 and have
been caught up in the broader market selloff in riskier assets. Japan’s been a
central player in the development of cryptocurrencies and has traditionally been the number two country
behind the US for Bitcoin trading volumes.”
It is essential that traders in the region have access to cryptos in
local currencies, following the introduction of new regulations recently.
Wilson explains:
“Japan has been at the
forefront of crypto regulation, too. The country passed the Payment Services
Act in April 2017, which recognised Bitcoin as currency. It also moved to
become the first government to issue crypto exchanges with formal licences. And
this year it passed a law that defined stablecoins as digital currencies,
imposing a mandatory link with the yen and ensuring the right to redeem them at
face value.”
The move should provide better access to
the crypto market for traders in Asia.
However it should also help provide improved
liquidity and hedging ability for yen-denominated trades and traders, by
providing more choice and access to assets in their trading currency.
