More about Binance Japan
Binance Japan was launched in August following Binance’s acquisition of the local licensed crypto exchange Sakura Exchange BitCoin in November 2022 and subsequently changed its name. This move signaled Binance’s re-entry into Japan after the country’s financial regulator issued warnings about operating without permission in 2021.
As an important note, Binance’s competitors Coinbase and Kraken recently withdrew from the Japanese market, citing market conditions as the reason.
