The speed at which research and business can be carried out in parallel

Please tell us how AokiApp was founded and what business you are working on.

Aoki Yuki (hereinafter, Aoki): I have thoroughly studied computer science through my studies and research at university, and at the same time, I have gained practical experience in the blockchain industry.

I launched AokiApp in 2023 with the desire to use those skills to create my own business. Currently, I am working on contract development and in-house development, leveraging my strengths in technology and knowledge related to My Number cards and blockchain.

How did you become interested in cryptocurrencies and blockchain in the first place?

Aoki: In 2016, I became interested in Monacoin (MONA), which is a domestic cryptocurrency that can be mined. Then in 2017, I developed "Monya", a smartphone app wallet that supports Japanese, which was rare at the time.
