We will also provide information on recruitment for engineers and business positions who will help us drive these social implementations.

Background of Exhibition

On-chain finance, including stablecoins, is gaining attention as a new option for enhancing existing financial infrastructure in areas such as payments, remittances, and asset management. However, for companies and financial institutions to fully utilize on-chain finance, governance, security, and compliance measures suitable for corporate use, such as internal governance, confidentiality of on-chain transaction information, and audit support, are essential.

Datachain has been working on the social implementation of blockchain technology through collaborations with financial institutions, payment service providers, and Web3 companies. At this WebX 2026 exhibition, we will present the value proposition of "Datachain Wallet" and "KuraPrivacy" as the foundation for corporations to safely and practically utilize on-chain finance.

Panel Discussion Participation

At WebX 2026, our CEO, Satoshi Hisada, will participate in a panel discussion with policy experts and stakeholders. Based on domestic and international trends surrounding on-chain finance, including stablecoins and tokenized deposits, the discussion will cover the challenges and prospects for the social implementation of on-chain finance in Japan from policy, market, and technological perspectives.
