Japan Reportedly Set to Approve Yen-Pegged Stablecoins This Fall: Impact on Crypto Liquidity and BTC, ETH Pairs

According to @rovercrc, Japan is set to greenlight yen-pegged stablecoins as soon as this fall, as reported in a post on X dated Aug 17, 2025, which signals a potential near-term regulatory go-ahead for JPY stablecoin issuance and market integration, source: @rovercrc on X. Japan’s revised Payment Services Act, effective June 2023, already permits issuance of fiat-referenced stablecoins by licensed banks, trust companies, and money transfer agents, with requirements including 1:1 redemption at par and segregation of reserves, source: Japan Financial Services Agency. Given this framework, any JPY stablecoin rollout would proceed via regulated issuers and licensed intermediaries, shaping listing pathways and fiat on-ramps for compliant domestic exchanges that serve crypto trading pairs, source: Japan Financial Services Agency. Traders should wait for an official notice from the Financial Services Agency or the Bank of Japan confirming timing, eligible issuers, and exchange integration before repositioning in JPY-crypto pairs such as BTC/JPY and ETH/JPY, source: independent analysis.
