XDC Network

Japanese financial services conglomerate SBI Holdings has joined forces with UAE-based TradeFinex to establish a dynamic joint venture. The objective of the partnership is to propel the widespread adoption of the XDC Network within Japan’s trade finance sector.Details of the agreement between the firms<a href="https://www.sbigroup.co.jp/english/news/pdf/2023/0929_f_en.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> emerged</a> last Friday. The strategic collaboration represents a move toward harnessing blockchain technology to infuse transparency, efficiency, and accessibility into the fabric of trade finance and supply chain management.At its core, the XDC Network stands as an enterprise blockchain platform which is compatible with the Ethereum virtual machine (EVM). In recent times, the XDC Network has cultivated partnerships with several international organizations, including the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). It has pioneered solutions aimed at cost reduction, transaction acceleration, and transparency augmentation within the trade finance sphere.<h2 id="header-0">Building upon related partnership</h2>SBI Holdings, deeply ingrained in Japan’s financial services sector, has taken significant strides to embrace the potential of blockchain technology. Earlier this year, its subsidiary, SBI VC Trade,<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/japanese-expansion-sees-xdc-network-pair-up-with-sbi-subsidiary-f85f35f043b" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> partnered</a> with the XDC Network, becoming the inaugural Japanese exchange to facilitate the cryptocurrency asset XDC. Building upon this previous collaboration, SBI VC Trade has been proactive in championing the expansion of the XDC Network’s presence in Japan.The freshly minted joint venture between SBI Holdings and TradeFinex has the potential to serve as a catalyst for further XDC Network growth in Japan. A central goal is to localize XDC Network-related information, thereby rendering it more accessible to Japanese businesses and investors.Additionally, the venture is actively scouting for cryptocurrency exchanges who are prepared to use and promote the XDC network, further amplifying its adoption. Exploring collaborations with subnet and layer-2 enterprises forms an integral part of their strategy.<h2 id="header-1">Japan’s evolving stance on blockchain</h2>The timing of this collaboration coincides with Japan’s evolving stance on blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. Emerging reports indicate the Japanese government’s contemplation of allowing startups to raise capital through cryptocurrency tokens, marking a seismic shift away from conventional stock listing processes.In April the Japanese government<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/japan-progresses-with-web3-white-paper-release-a5f36c8eed59" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> released</a> a whitepaper on Web3, in its efforts to explore ways to foster innovation in the emerging sector. Furthermore, Japan’s National Tax Agency has made<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/japans-new-tax-amendment-sparks-optimism-for-crypto-industry-cf3263d7d65" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> adjustments</a> to its cryptocurrency-related tax code, underscoring a proactive stance toward regulating the cryptocurrency industry. Related to that, the country’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) has been exploring<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/japans-fsa-proposes-tax-exemption-for-unrealized-crypto-gains-591d47d70507" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> tax exemptions</a> relative to unrealized crypto gains.Japan has become known historically as a center of technological innovation. There have been<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/web3-offers-potential-for-japan-to-rediscover-its-mojo-973e8c66432a" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> soundings</a> recently that it can rediscover its abilities in that respect through the development of Web3.The strategic alliance between SBI Holdings and TradeFinex charts a promising trajectory for the XDC Network within Japan’s trade finance sector. Anchored in a project that aspires to offer innovation, transparency, and operational efficiency, this joint venture offers considerable potential to spearhead the adoption of blockchain technology within one of the world’s most prominent financial markets.<a href="https://medium.com/tag/financial-firm?source&#61;post_page-----3920aa8adcd2---------------financial_firm-----------------" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> </a>
