日本SBI集团正在打造亚洲首个跨境数字资产帝国

这家证券巨头今日宣布将新加坡的Coinhako纳入旗下，此举是其快速区域扩张的一部分，该扩张还包括与Ondo Finance的代币化合作。

• Japan’s SBI Group acquired a majority stake in Singapore-based crypto platform Coinhako as part of a broader push to build a global digital asset corridor across Asia.
• The company is expanding its digital asset footprint through partnerships with Ondo Finance and the Solana Foundation to tokenize real-world assets and develop yen-based on-chain settlement using its JPYSC stablecoin, though JPYSC cannot yet be moved to external wallets.
• Recent deals, including the planned purchase of Tokyo exchange Bitbank and investments in EDX Markets and Gauntlet, reflect SBI’s long-term strategy to control the full digital asset value chain rather than chase short-term crypto market cycles.

SBI Group acquired a majority stake in Singapore-based crypto platform Coinhako，这家日本金融服务集团周五表示。新加坡金融管理局（MAS）已向Coinhako颁发主要支付机构牌照，SBI称该平台在新加坡运营。

"The SBI Group seeks to establish a global corridor for digital assets by connecting exchanges worldwide," SBI Holdings首席执行官北尾吉孝表示。SBI Holdings是日本最大的在线证券公司，拥有超过1400万用户，托管资产达3080亿美元。

此项收购前不久，SBI于周四与Ondo Finance合作，利用其JPYSC稳定币对日本股票及其他资产进行代币化结算。

该公司的区域扩张还得到与Solana基金会新伙伴关系的支持。根据协议，Solana基金会将持有SBI R3 Japan的股权，该公司将更名为SBI Solana Global。新实体将专注于发行稳定币以及对企业债券、房地产等真实世界资产进行代币化。

该公司表示，此战略旨在将传统金融市场与区块链基础设施连接起来。

“SBI is the first financial group in Asia to go after the entire digital asset value chain at once, from issuance and settlement through trading infrastructure, asset management and retail distribution, and to do it across the region rather than only at home,”加密投资银行及咨询公司Areta的亚太区董事兼负责人Joseph Goh告诉CoinDesk。

“The real prize is the yen side of onchain settlement, one of the most strategic positions in Asian finance over the coming decade, and that is exactly what SBI is building toward,”他补充道。

仍存在一项技术限制：JPYSC目前尚不支持提现至外部钱包。

"Regarding JPYSC, its use is currently limited to accounts within SBI VC Trade, and it does not yet support withdrawals to external wallets or remittances and settlements via public blockchains,"发言人表示。

目前，这限制了JPYSC在SBI自身平台之外的使用。投资者尚无法将该稳定币转移至外部钱包，也无法在公共区块链上用于结算交易。

与SBI Holdings合作开发JPYSC的Startale Group首席执行官Sota Watanabe表示，该公司持续投资数字资产，反映出他所看到的机构对区块链基础设施信心的增长。

"SBI Holdings' continued commitment to digital assets likely signals confidence in the future architecture of global finance,"Watanabe告诉CoinDesk。

他说，区块链正日益被视为金融基础设施而非新兴技术，并补充称，由于日本的监管框架和金融机构，其在该领域处于有利位置。

SBI expansion

SBI agreed to buy Tokyo-based cryptocurrency exchange Bitbank for around $289 million in June. The acquisition is expected to close in October, subject to regulatory approval. SBI previously acquired crypto exchange Bitpoint in 2022. The firm also led a $76 million Series C funding round for institutional exchange EDX Markets and a $25 million Series C round for crypto risk manager Gauntlet, the spokesperson said.

SBI said these investments are part of its effort to build an end-to-end digital asset business spanning exchanges, tokenization, stablecoins and blockchain infrastructure across Asia.

The company said its investment strategy is based on long-term infrastructure development rather than short-term crypto market cycles.

"In light of the expansion of cryptocurrency ETFs in the United States, as institutional investor participation raises liquidity, market credibility, and risk management standards, we expect that retail participation will also expand, and both will develop in a mutually complementary manner," the spokesperson said.

The spokesperson said the company's investments and expansion are not driven by short-term market sentiment.
