As we begin a New Year, we would like to extend our gratitude to our valued customers for being an integral part of our remarkable journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A New Dawn in 2024<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9b7cdd8e8606fb2fbf48a669da9042e5\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">Following a prolonged &#8220;crypto winter,&#8221; 2024 brings a palpable sense of renewal. CEO Yuzo Kano&#8217;s return in the past year positioned bitFlyer Group for a promising spring. As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, we eagerly prepare for a fresh chapter under a new organizational structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Glimpse into 2023<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-0a14bc42d03f31a612524ddac826bae9\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">In 2023, Yuzo Kano, as the Representative Director of the Japan Blockchain Association (JBA), played a pivotal role in advocating for crypto asset tax reforms in Japan. These reforms aim to enhance the landscape for crypto asset financing, attracting foreign investment and fostering a robust environment for token issuance. Furthermore, market trends have shifted, with Bitcoin rising 156% throughout the year. While there are various factors at play, this is partly attributed to speculation that a bitcoin spot ETF may soon be approved by US authorities. Looking at the market, the long winter is coming to an end and spring will soon be upon us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outlook and Aspirations for 2024<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-afbf68962304df55eff138a3fd68c2bc\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">After implementing stringent regulations in 2018, Japan has emerged as a global crypto hub. Compliant firms like bitFlyer have been rewarded, as the rules continue to become more clear and business-friendly. bitFlyer is committed to making 2024 rewarding for customers, leveraging compliance and technological advancements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9f228066e31ce1ba21fbad7d6f0e6a0d\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">CEO Yuzo Kano emphasizes bitFlyer&#8217;s mission to &#8220;Simplify the World with Blockchain.&#8221; With the principle of &#8220;One Team, One Dream,&#8221; bitFlyer aspires to become &#8220;Asia&#8217;s No.1 web3 company&#8221; over the next decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8142acb9a34860e17104af55cf737f76\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">Join us on this exciting journey, and cheers to a year filled with innovation, growth, and shared success!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-41c76e9d596dc584260bd00fc9151ea0\" style=\"color:#150000;font-size:16px\">bitFlyer USA Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy New Year from the bitFlyer USA team! \ud83c\udf89 As we dive into 2024, our Group CEO, Yuzo Kano, shares his heartfelt reflections and aspirations for the year ahead.
