BlockBeats message: On July 13, Japan’s financial group SBI Holdings and the Solana Foundation announced that they have reached a strategic partnership to jointly build an on-chain financial market centered on Japan. As part of the collaboration, the Solana Foundation will take an equity stake in SBI R3 Japan, which will be renamed SBI Solana Global in the future.

According to the announcement, SBI Solana Global will support stablecoin issuance and circulation based on the Solana blockchain, including the Japanese yen stablecoin JPYSC. It will also advance tokenized issuance and distribution of real-world assets (RWAs) such as corporate bonds, commercial paper, funds, and real estate. In addition, it will develop cross-border settlement infrastructure, on-chain financial services for institutional investors, and payment infrastructure for AI Agents.

In addition, SBI also announced that on July 16 it will launch an application for a JPYSC deposit product via SBI VC Trade, offering a 3% annualized return. Recently, SBI has continued to strengthen its on-chain finance layout by investing in Gauntlet and EDX Markets in succession, and by completing the acquisition of Japan’s crypto exchange Bitbank.
