Accelerating regional revitalization through NFT │ Interview with Hiroaki Hatanaka

From hometown tax return gifts to the next stage

Regional revitalization through NFT is accelerating

The spread of NFT will be essential for making an impact on the world. We will contribute to increasing tax revenue for local governments and revitalizing local communities through partnerships with large companies.

Several years have passed since regional revitalization was positioned as an important pillar of national strategy. Hometown tax donations have been introduced as part of this effort, and are gaining support as a system that allows users and local governments to build win-win relationships.

In recent years, there have been cases where NFTs are provided as return gifts, and Aryaumu is at the forefront of this. Representative Hiroaki Hatanaka, who has entered into a business partnership with KDDI in 2023 and is accelerating the business, talks about the use of NFTs and the prospects for Web 3.0.
