USDC, the dollar stablecoin, is set to launch in Japan through a partnership between Circle, SBI Holdings, and Circle Japan KK.
SBI VC Trade will be the first exchange to fully support USDC in Japan, with other major exchanges also preparing to participate.
The move demonstrates USDC's credibility in entering the selective Japanese market with strict regulatory oversight.
Circle is focused on expanding global trust and infrastructure while improving technology, such as the integration of Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol for faster and more secure fund transfers.
