Laser Digital receives Japan crypto exchange approval after four years

Cointelegraph says the registration allows Laser Digital Japan to offer domestic liquidity and build toward institutional crypto trading.

Cointelegraph reports that Laser Digital Japan has received Japan registration to operate as a crypto exchange, marking the first approval for the company in four years.

The outlet says the move comes as Laser Digital Japan is able to provide domestic liquidity before it expands into institutional crypto trading.

Cointelegraph also notes that Laser Digital Japan is Nomura-backed, and the registration focuses first on exchange operations tied to liquidity provision.
