- Japan to allow startups to raise funds by issuing crypto instead of stocks: Report
According to local media, this updated system is specifically applicable to a category of funds known as Investment Business Limited Partnerships.
The Japanese government reportedly plans to permit startups to raise public funds through the issuance of crypto assets, such as currencies, instead of stocks, local media has reported.
According to Japanese financial news site The Nikkei, this updated system is specifically applicable to a category of funds known as Investment Business Limited Partnerships (LPS). So far, Japan has lagged behind the rest of the world in embracing digital assets. However, this has been changing in recent months.
Japan’s primary financial regulatory authority, the Financial Services Agency (FSA), made a significant move on Aug. 31, seeking to amend the tax code related to cryptocurrencies, thereby taking a more active role in cryptocurrency regulation. The noteworthy move is aimed at exempting local businesses from the year-end “unrealized gains” tax on cryptocurrencies.
- JPEX hikes withdrawal fee to almost nullK after Hong Kong watchdog warning
Community members shared reports that the crypto exchange’s staff abandoned their booth at Token 2049 in Singapore after the warning.
Crypto exchange JPEX has reportedly increased its withdrawal fee to up to 999 USDT
USDT -null.00
after receiving a warning from Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), with its staff also reportedly going missing from its Token 2049 booth in Singapore.
On Sept. 13, the SFC, Hong Kong’s crypto watchdog, issued a warning against JPEX for allegedly promoting its services to the Hong Kong public despite not being licensed or applying for a license to operate in the jurisdiction. According to the SFC, JPEX has marketed itself on its website as a licensed and recognized platform despite being unregulated.
The SFC said it had already notified the relevant opinion leaders and over-the-counter stores of its suspicions about the exchange and asked them to cease promoting the exchange’s services.
- Hong Kong retains top crypto-ready position for two consecutive years
While Hong Kong grabbed the top spot with a crypto readiness score (CRS) of 8.36, the United States fell down a spot to third place after recording a fall of 6.5% in its CRS score — from 7.7 in 2022 to 7.25.
Hong Kong was crowned the best-prepared jurisdiction for widespread cryptocurrency adoption in 2023, retaining its crypto-readiness prowess for the second year in a row.
A study factoring in the existence and reach of crypto — via ATMs, businesses, accessibility and legality — revealed stiff competition among the 2022 leaders as Hong Kong, the United States and Switzerland held on to the top three positions.
