Japan to Explore 24/7 Blockchain Settlement for Bonds and Stocks According to Nikkei, the Japanese government, the Bank of Japan (BOJ), and financial institutions plan to develop a next-generation blockchain-based financial settlement infrastructure, aiming to enable 24/7 real-time settlement for assets such as government bonds and stocks. The Financial Services Agency (FSA), Ministry of Finance, BOJ, and relevant financial institutions will establish a study group this summer and plan to formulate a development plan in early 2027, covering blockchain architecture and how the government, central bank, and financial institutions will collaborate. Japan has previously conducted several blockchain-based financial experiments, but this is the first project with a clear implementation timeline.
