Japan will reevaluate its cryptocurrency regulations, potentially easing taxes on digital assets and opening the door for domestic investment funds focused on tokens.
According to a Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-30/japan-crypto-review-may-open-door-to-lower-taxes-dedicated-etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">report</a>, the Financial Services Agency (FSA) will conduct a review in the coming months to assess whether the current regulatory framework, the Payment Services Act, is sufficient.
The FSA will examine whether existing rules, designed for payment functions, offer adequate investor protection, given that digital tokens are now primarily used for investment. This could lead to reclassifying cryptocurrencies under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, which governs financial securities.

Market analyst Yuya Hasegawa of bitbank Inc. said this reclassification could bring “dramatic changes” to the sector.
