Huobi Group, the digital asset exchange company, announced today that thanks to a merger with BitTrade, Huobi Japan has relaunched itself as a fully regulated exchange under Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA).
“This is an important milestone for us,” said Leon Li, Huobi Group Founder, and CEO. “Firstly, because the Japanese market is a very important one to us and, secondly, because working with regulators is a longstanding priority for Huobi Group. We’re proud to say that Huobi Japan now has one of the first 17 licenses issued under the FSA’s ground-breaking regulatory regime.”
“We are extremely pleased to once again be offering our services to the Japanese trading public,” said Huobi Japan CEO Haiteng Chen. “We’re looking to continue to grow our presence here while offering top-notch digital asset trading services in Japan.”
Huobi Japan currently offers Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), Ripple (XRP), and Monacoin (MONA) – all with the stability and safety that Huobi is well known for. In addition to 24/7 customer service by email and a dedicated and highly qualified team ensuring its operation and security around the clock, the Huobi Japan exchange features specialized distributed architecture, a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack countermeasures system, and A+ ranked SSL certification (the highest available).
To mark the occasion, Huobi Japan is offering zero transaction fees on both crypto and fiat currency for a limited time.
