PANews reported on November 5th, citing Reuters, that Japanese cryptocurrency exchanges and financial companies are seizing the opportunity presented by surging investor enthusiasm for digital assets, aiming to profit from the anticipated deregulation, by launching new products and services and promoting leveraged trading. As of the end of July, Japanese investors' cryptocurrency holdings surpassed a record 5 trillion yen, a 25% increase from just one month prior. During the same period, Bitcoin, a major holding, saw its yen-denominated price rise by only 15%. By the end of September, holdings had slightly decreased to 4.9 trillion yen.
