Higher frequency payments are where this whole category is heading — tighter stability near par, deeper liquidity, larger addressable market. Yes, #Metaplanet may be behind $MSTR and $ASST in getting MARS listed, given they are pioneering the product in Japan with regulators. But the next important step is one Japan can take and the US cannot (yet). Japan is meaningfully ahead of the US on security token infrastructure. The 2020 FIEA amendments created a regulated category for digitally-recorded transferable rights (電子記録移転権利). SBI, Nomura, Mitsui, Daiwa all operate live security token platforms. Tokenized real estate, corporate bonds, and fund units already trade in Japan with on-chain distribution mechanics. In the US, the SEC is still litigating what a security token even is. So what does this mean in practice? Metaplanet can skip intermediate stages and launch a tokenized MARS with continuous accrual from day one. Dividends accrue in real time, second by second, visible in the holder’s app. A natural synergy with $JPYC. It can be wrapped by any bank. Mizuho, SMBC, Rakuten, and SBI sit on ¥1,100 trillion in retail deposits earning essentially zero. Any of them could distribute tokenized MARS as a savings product inside their app — the customer simply sees their yen balance growing every second. Metaplanet’s path forward runs through Japan’s STO framework and bank distribution rails — both of which are genuinely well ahead of the US. So while they may not be first to list, the second phase — mass distribution once the product is ready — could see Metaplanet leapfrog the rest. $MPJPY $MTPLF


The "capture rate" is the percentage of people who try a substance that end up addicted. Alcohol, cocaine, and methamphetamine all have similar capture rates, with ~20% of users developing an addiction. Should we be advocating for nuance around cocaine and meth consumption?

SEC Clarifies Certain DeFi UIs Can Operate Without Broker-Dealer Registration The SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets said certain crypto trading interfaces, including DeFi front-ends, wallet extensions, and mobile apps, may operate without broker-dealer registration if specific conditions are met. These include no order routing, no investment advice, no custody of user assets, and only fixed, neutral fee structures. The guidance applies to self-custodial wallet interfaces and will remain effective for five years unless superseded by further SEC action.
