Japan Enacts New Crypto Reserves to Bolster Investor Safety

To enhance investor security in its rapidly evolving digital asset market, Japan will implement new reserve rules for crypto exchanges. These regulations aim to align the country’s market with global standards and address concerns about hacks and platform failures. The Financial Services Agency (FSA), Japan’s regulator, has proposed legal amendments requiring platforms to maintain liability reserves that can cover losses from unauthorized access or other asset outflows. This move signifies a significant step toward bolstering investor protection in one of the world’s most regulated crypto markets.
