  In Japan, cryptocurrencies are regulated by the Financial Services Agency (FSA). The FSA has implemented a licensing system for cryptocurrency exchanges, requiring them to register with the agency and comply with certain security and anti-money laundering measures. This regulatory framework aims to protect investors and prevent illicit activities in the cryptocurrency market. Additionally, Japan has recognized cryptocurrencies as a legal form of payment since 2017, which has contributed to the widespread adoption of digital currencies in the country.
