According to Reuters, the Japanese Liberal Democratic Party's blockchain technology promotion group submitted a proposal to Finance Minister Nobuhide Katayama on Monday, suggesting that Japan promote the yen stablecoin for settlement in Asia and establish a legal framework that allows trading of cryptocurrency ETFs. The proposal points out that cryptocurrency ETFs will provide investors with an easy-to-understand investment method and calls on the government to position them as formal investment tools in the financial market.

Liberal Democratic Party member Junichi Kanda stated that Japan plans to promote the yen stablecoin and blockchain innovation initiatives during the Asian Development Bank annual meeting it will host in May next year. Currently, Japan's three major banks have launched a joint issuance experiment for stablecoins with the support of the Financial Services Agency.
