Datachain Joins the Fintech Association of Japan

TOKYO, Japan — March 31, 2026 — Datachain, Inc. (CEO: Tetsushi Hisata; hereinafter "Datachain") announces that it has joined the Fintech Association of Japan (Chairman: Takashi Okita; hereinafter the "Fintech Association") as a corporate member.

Since its founding in 2018, Datachain has been advancing research and development to address protocol-level challenges in blockchain technology. In 2022, the company launched its stablecoin business in earnest and has since been driving initiatives such as "Project Pax," a cross-border remittance infrastructure project developed in collaboration with Japan's three mega-banks, Swift, and Progmat. In 2025, Datachain further expanded into the tokenized deposit space, accelerating its growth as a company that provides infrastructure for the on-chain finance era—covering both stablecoins and tokenized deposits.

As the era of on-chain finance comes into full swing, the digital currency domain, including stablecoins and tokenized deposits, represents a critical area where existing financial infrastructure and emerging technologies converge. Moreover, the enterprise-grade Web3 wallet scheduled for launch this spring and the privacy layer for confidential on-chain transactions are essential components for the secure use of these digital currencies. By joining the Fintech Association, Datachain will leverage its technological assets and expertise to collaborate with fellow member companies, working together to drive innovation in on-chain finance with a focus on the digital currency space.
