Japan is one of the country that using bitcoins. Many people in Japan are now aware to what is bitcoin and I know also that thousands of stores in the Japan are now accepting bitcoins.

finally! I was really worried they would follow along China, who is pretty much putting a lock on the entire crypto industry. What a shame really. Japan has already been an innovation center in all aspects of technological advancements, so it's not all too surprising to see them initiating this. Japan shows and other countries follow.. it's just a matter of time before more realize the important of the underlying technology and start at least regulating minorly the crypto space

Japanese are the friendly people and they know about the advantages of bitcoin and that’s why they are licensing it because they knew well that bitcoin can bring a lot of development and profit into their region and on top of it bitcoin will give boos to their economy and this will lead to their progress as much than before and surely japan will enjoy its benefit soon.

This is a very good indication that bitcoin will be accepted worldwide in the near future.

It was very much expected and most of the experts were predicting this thing as well bitcoin is no doubt very profitable thing not only for the investors of bitcoin but also for the state to make its economic condition better. Japan has indeed taken a very wonderful step and this will encourage other countries as well to take such kind of steps.

This is indeed good news to bitcoin! As what I have expected that Japan will be the first  country to legalize bitcoin because the inventor is also Japanese.  This is a great start and soon enough  more country  will join this act and it is not impossible  that someday bitcoin will be accepted  worldwide and  by that time,bitcoin's price will really,  really  soar high. Patiently waiting here!
