Crypto asset exchange OKCoinJapan - a look back at 2023

Q: Tell us about OKCoinJapan's strengths in handling new crypto assets.

Hakkaku: In 2023, we have announced the start of handling 15 new crypto assets to date, including the first crypto assets to be handled in Japan, such as Arbitrum (ARB) and Sui (SUI). Currently, the number of crypto assets handled is 35, and OKCoinJapan ranks first in Japan in terms of the number of issues handled for board trading, on which it focuses, with 34 (as of the time of writing).

In order to bring projects that are attracting attention on a global level to the Japanese public as quickly as possible, OKCoin Japan focuses on the following.

The first point is to work with projects. We are in constant and close communication both online, domestically and internationally, and offline, so that we can quickly catch up on project trends and other information.

Secondly, development speed: OKCoin Japan has a speedy development system by utilising global-level technology and know-how.

Thirdly, we are creative. We differentiate ourselves by developing services and campaigns that cannot be found anywhere else.
