Japan’s Popular Line Chat App to Launch Cryptocurrency Exchange
Japan’s popular chat app, Line, has announced that they have filed to launch a cryptocurrency exchange within the app.
While some countries are clamping down on cryptocurrency and exchanges, Japan has opened their doors. This had led to a marked rise in crypto-related businesses seeking to do business within the country. Of course, there are home-grown businesses looking to hop on board the crypto train as well. The latest to do so is Line, the popular chat app, who has filed an application to open up an cryptocurrency exchange within the app.
Leveraging the Numbers
This is a pretty interesting move, and one that could do quite well. Line is extremely popular, boasting 200 million active monthly users. The chat app already has a mobile payment service within the app, called Line Pay, that has 40 million users.
Overall, Line Pay had a total transaction volume of roughly $4 billion in 2017. Line is leveraging their numbers to open up a new revenue stream via a cryptocurrency exchange. Such numbers shouldn’t be taken lightly. The popular Coinbase has a total of roughly 13 million users.
There’s another reason why Line is seeking to open up an exchange. Its user numbers are flattening out, so seeking a new revenue stream is a smart choice. As the numbers for Line Pay shows, the app’s users are quite willing to use whatever the platform has to offer.
Line is going full-bore with their plans, hiring knowledgeable people in blockchain technology and finance. The chat app “hopes to become a leader in the FinTech industry as the world moves increasingly towards a cashless wallet-less society.”
Crypto Going Strong in Japan
Overall, enthusiasm for cryptocurrency continues to rise in Japan. This is even after the recent Coincheck hack that saw the exchange lose around $530 million (of which, $425 million will be reimbursed). The country’s regulatory financial agency gave Coincheck a slap on the wrist, combined with an admonition to do more to provide adequate safeguards against future hacks.
youtube
Japan, unlike some other countries, has regulations and laws that promote and protect the use of cryptocurrencies. The government has even recognized Bitcoin as a legitimate payment method.
Analysts believe the crypto-friendly attitude of the Japanese government will boost the economy due to the increase of blockchain and crypto businesses. Yoshiyuki Suimon, the team lead for a study by Nomura, said the following on how the economy will be boosted by crypto:
Rises in asset values often result in a rise in consumer spending, too, known as the wealth effect. We estimate the wealth effect from unrealized gains on bitcoin trading by Japanese investors since the start of fiscal year 2017, and estimate a potential boost to consumer spending of 23.2-96.0 billion yen.
Just to show how popular cryptocurrency has become in Japan, there’s even a crypto-themed girl group called the Virtual Currency Girls (Kaso Tsuka Shoju). You just got to love Japan.
Do you think Line opening up a cryptocurrency exchange will be successful? Will Japan become the regional capital of the crypto world in Asia? Let us know in the comments below.

Cryptocurrency Watch: From Kodak to KFC, From CES to Toronto and Tokyo
The world has gone a little bit(coin) crypto-mad this week. Case in point: shares in Eastman Kodak soared nearly 120% after the photo firm revealed plans at CES 2018 in Las Vegas to mint its own crypto-currency, the KODAKCoin.
The U.S. firm is teaming up with UK-based WENN Media Group to carry out the initial coin offering (ICO). Kodak and WENN Digital, in a licensing partnership, announced the launch of the KODAKOne image rights management platform and KODAKCoin, a photo-centric cryptocurrency to empower photographers and agencies to take greater control in image rights management.
Here’s a photo of Kodak’s magic money making machine. http://pic.twitter.com/wjWeJqMUBF

It’s part of a blockchain-based initiative to help photographers control their image rights. Kodak plans to install rows of Bitcoin mining rigs—called the Kodak KashMiner—at its corporate headquarters in Rochester, New York.

“For many in the tech industry, ‘blockchain’ and ‘cryptocurrency’ are hot buzzwords, but for photographers who’ve long struggled to assert control over their work and how it’s used, these buzzwords are the keys to solving what felt like an unsolvable problem,” stated Kodak CEO Jeff Clarke. “Kodak has always sought to democratize photography and make licensing fair to artists. These technologies give the photography community an innovative and easy way to do just that.”

Cryptocurrencies are indeed one of the buzzwords at this year’s CES, which is hosting the CoinAgenda Summit and Digital Money Forum double-header event for startups and others in the virtual currency and blockchain space.
As Swarm Fund CEO Philipp Pieper told us as CES was just getting underway, “Bitcoin was the story that dominated the end of 2017, and many of us in the market see 2018 as the year that cryptocurrency and blockchain truly achieve validation and become much more part of the mainstream.”
Financial institutions are watching and dipping in their toes. Ripple, a blockchain-based cryptocurrency backed by some major international banks and financial institutions, partnered in November with American Express and Santander on a blockchain pilot to expedite cross-border payments between the U.K. and the U.S. This week, Ripple announced a trial with U.S. money transfer giant MoneyGram to test international cryptocurrency payments.
The crypto craze (which still has skeptics such as Goldman Sachs, even as J.P. Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon comes around) is reaching far beyond CES and Las Vegas.
Japan on Friday saw the launch of Kaso Tsuka Shojo / 仮想通貨少女 (which translates as Virtual Currency Girls), a girl pop band—call them crypto-pop instead of J-pop—designed to educate the public about cryptocurrencies and warn about abuse.
youtube
The group staged their first performance in Tokyo on Friday to promote the idea that virtual currencies are an innovative technology “through entertainment” — and admission was only possible, of course, to attendees who paid using crypto coinage.
Each of the eight girls in the band portrays a character representing a virtual currency such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Ripple. Wearing character masks, frilly mini-skirts, maid aprons and knee-high socks, their tunes included their hit song, “The Moon and Virtual Currencies and Me,” warning against fraudulent operators and urging attention to online security.
“Our brains are fried as we are studying every day” about virtual currencies, said the group’s 18-year-old leader Rara “Bitcoin” Naruse, above, to AFP.

The band is the creation of Japanese entertainment company Cinderella Academy, which manages other J-pop bands. Fans at their first show paid 0.001 bitcoin (around $15) to take a picture with one of the performers and chat virtual money. As noted by the Financial Times, Bitcoin is recognized as legal tender in Japan and close to one-third of global bitcoin transactions in December were denominated in Japanese yen.
While lacking the flashy costumes, KFC Canada also announced this week it’s accepting bitcoin for a cryptocurrency-themed bucket of chicken, in a limited time promotion.

“The Bitcoin Bucket” complete with a Facebook live-tracker, costs about $20 Canadian and the chain is accepting Bitcoin via BitPay as one option through an online check-out page. The Bitcoin Bucket will then be delivered to the customer’s address for an additional $5 fee. The Bitcoin Bucket contains ten chicken tenders, waffle fries, a medium side, a medium gravy, and two dips.

KFC Canada admitted on Twitter: “Sure, we don’t know exactly what Bitcoins are, or how they work, but that shouldn’t come between you and some finger-lickin’ good chicken. Not a bull market, this here is a chicken one. We could maybe be persuaded to someday accept DogeCoin.”
The company drew parallels between the secret chicken recipe concocted by Colonel Sanders and the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. “Was Satoshi the Colonel all along?”
If Satoshi reveals his true identity, his bucket is on us. #BitcoinBucket
— KFC Canada (@kfc_canada) January 11, 2018
Not all are amused. Carl Miller, research director of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos and author of upcoming book ‘Power: Liberation and Control in the Twenty-First Century’ said of the promotion, “The marvellous, terrible way that a system deliberately designed to undercut the economic world order is neatly turned into a branding opp.”
Marketers are born to market—and when something is as hot, and mysterious, as cryptocurrency, it’s understandable that it would inspired some branded entertainment.
#BitcoinBucket is currently sold out. There will be a restock tonight. We’re mining for more as fast as we can.

Japanese Crypto Girls Coining It In
Many countries have shied away from cryptocurrencies and even clamped down on trading and using them. These tend to be the more authoritarian nations such as Russia, China, and Indonesia. Japan, conversely, is embracing the blockchain revolution with open arms and even has a group known as the Virtual Currency Girls who are attempting to bring more awareness to the masses.
Bitcoin is considered legal tender in Japan, the world’s third largest economy. According to JPBitcoin.com, almost a third of all BTC transactions during December were denominated in Yen. In complete contrast to China and South Korea that want more regulation Japan passed a law in April last year legalizing and legitimizing digital currencies and underscoring the need for transparency and financial stability.
Miss Bitcoin
According to India’s Economic Times, Japanese social media icon Mai Fujimoto, aka ‘Miss Bitcoin’, says she invests all of her savings in the digital currency. In a recent interview she told AFP:
I convert all my disposable income into cryptocurrency, I’ve been doing this for nearly a year now. I convert all my savings into cryptocurrency instead of putting them in a bank.
Miss Bitcoin has done very well out of her investments starting out in 2012 when she got her first BTC for 1,200 Yen (about $10);
At the time, I was working with children and creating an online donation platform. And for the first time, I learned how expensive it is to send money abroad. So, I was really impressed when I heard that I don’t have to go through banks if I use bitcoin payment.
Crypto Girl Power
Japanese culture can be quirky, to say the least. An all-girl idol group called the Virtual Currency Girls (Kaso Tsuka Shoju) have also made it big in crypto and strives to extoll its virtues across the country. The group, managed by Cinderella Academy Inc, intends to capitalize on the current wave of crypto mania by offering all tickets to their live performances and fan goods exclusively through digital currencies.
The eight-member team, ranging in age from 15 to 22, each has her own crypto coin persona and, in true Japanese fashion, uses cosplay to promote them. Characters such as Neo, Nem, Ethereum and even Cardano have their own merchandise and are wildly popular with Japanese youth.
Japan always finds its own idiosyncratic way of doing things and promoting crypto through girl groups seems to be the latest craze.
Are internet idols a good way to promote crypto? Add your thoughts below.
