SBINFT Market and Japan Open Chain: A New Era for NFTs
In a significant development for the NFT market in Japan, SBINFT Corporation, led by CEO Tomohiko Kondo, has officially integrated the Japan Open Chain into its NFT marketplace, SBINFT Market. This integration was finalized on September 12, 2025, and marks a pivotal moment for users who can now trade NFTs issued not only on Ethereum and Polygon but also on the new Japan Open Chain.
Background of the Initiative
In recent years, the adoption of Web3 technologies, including NFTs, has been growing rapidly, providing new methods for ensuring the transparency and reliability of digital asset ownership and distribution. The Japanese market recognizes this trend, integrating Web3 into its national strategy, positioning itself for potential growth in the sector.
SBINFT aims to advance the social implementation of blockchain and NFTs through its platforms, including SBINFT Market and SBINFT Mits. By enhancing multi-chain compatibility and targeting stable operational chains, SBINFT is focused on promoting the circulation of various NFTs and improving user convenience—essential for achieving its envisioned society.
Japan Blockchain Infrastructure, under the leadership of CEO Dimei Inaba, also plays a critical role in this ecosystem. They are spearheading the consortium for Japan Open Chain, which is designed to be compliant with Japanese law while providing a fast, affordable, and secure blockchain infrastructure for businesses worldwide. This initiative is expected to catalyze the growth of the Web3 market in Japan.
Both SBINFT and Japan Blockchain Infrastructure share the goal of promoting the development of the Web3 market domestically, contributing to the creation and distribution of new digital assets.
Expanding the Japan Open Chain’s Reach
The implementation of Japan Open Chain with SBINFT Market will accelerate its expansion into the NFT sector. By offering high reliability and cost advantages, the chain aims to support a broad spectrum of NFT use cases, including art, gaming, and the metaverse, ultimately serving as a societal infrastructure for digital assets.
Looking ahead, SBINFT plans to enhance its service offerings to meet customer needs while striving to increase user satisfaction. Collaborating with various enterprises and organizations, SBINFT is set to lead the way in shaping Japan's Web3 business landscape.
