@saylor let's go visit Japan.

Four Pillars’ first official trip to Japan has now come to a close. Over the past week, we participated not only in MoneyX, where we joined as the Exclusive Research Partner, but also in various side events and several private gatherings across Tokyo. First and foremost, we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to @coin_post for giving us the opportunity to serve as the Exclusive Research Partner of MoneyX. Japan is a unique market. Many business conversations are conducted in Japanese, and having trusted local friends who could support us linguistically and culturally made an enormous difference. Their help allowed us to build meaningful relationships that would have otherwise been difficult to form. In particular, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to @nishida-san from @BDashVentures, who kindly introduced us to numerous institutions at private events. We are not even part of their portfolio, yet every time we visit Japan, they treat us as true partners. Without him, many of our conversations with Japanese institutions would not have been possible. We are also deeply grateful to @musi_crypto -san and @crypt0crypt0___ -san, who represented Four Pillars at our booth during the conference and engaged with Japanese participants on our behalf. Without their support, we would not have been able to successfully wrap up the conference. And we are always grateful to @hashed_official , who—whether in Korea, the United States, or Japan—continues to introduce us as a proud portfolio company, backed by their unparalleled global network.(thank you @simonkim_nft and @junkim 🙇🏼‍♂️) If Four Pillars was able to shine in Japan this week, it is not only because of what we did well, but because we were supported by friends in Japan who genuinely want to see us succeed. That is precisely why we cannot afford to be arrogant. In many ways, this is what makes the crypto industry meaningful. Crypto connects strangers—people of different nationalities and cultures—through shared incentives and common belief systems. We may come from different backgrounds, but through crypto, we were able to become friends, collaborators, and partners. The industry can be exhausting and stressful at times. But moments like these remind us why we are here in the first place. Our journey in Japan has just begun.
