Tokyo is undoubtedly one of the most beloved cities for Web3 professionals. It’s a place that satisfies all your desires—whether for work or leisure. Imagine attending a business conference in a city that also offers ample opportunities for enjoyment outside work—it’s an ideal scenario. And Tokyo is precisely that kind of city.
TEAMZ Summit is strategically held in April, a time when Japan enjoys its best weather of the year. The pleasant climate and the breathtaking cherry blossoms create a picturesque “pink Tokyo.” Whether you’re attending with colleagues to make things happen or bringing family and friends for a combined conference and sightseeing trip, this is an excellent plan.
From a business perspective, April is significant in Japan as it marks the first month after governmental and corporate personnel shifts, making it the true start of Q1 for Japanese businesses. This is the time when government policies, annual business plans, and strategic decisions for the year are typically announced. At TEAMZ Summit 2025, attendees will gain insights into the latest developments in Japan’s Web3 industry, including national Web3 strategies, financial regulatory policies, tax incentives, and the latest updates from major corporations and communities.
Moreover, Expo 2025 Osaka, an international event with the theme “Designing Future Society for Our Lives,” will open on April 13, 2025. Focused on innovation and collaboration for global sustainability, Expo 2025 offers an additional incentive for you to visit Japan, allowing you to experience both TEAMZ Summit and the Expo during the same trip.
If these reasons still don’t convince you to attend, let’s delve into the Japanese Web3 market landscape and the highlights of TEAMZ Summit 2025 to give you a clear picture of what awaits.
Japan’s Web3 Market Landscape
On the National Level
Web3 is now a crucial component of Japan’s national strategy, identified as a key driver of economic growth. To support the healthy development of the cryptocurrency industry, Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) and Digital Agency are actively advancing regulations and reforming tax policies.
Reforms in Cryptocurrency Tax Policies:
1. Exemption on Unrealized Profits:
As of April 2024, businesses holding cryptocurrencies are no longer taxed on unrealized profits. Previously, companies were required to pay taxes on the market value of their holdings at the fiscal year-end. The new policy only taxes profits from actual sales of cryptocurrencies.
2. Proposed Tax Rate Adjustment:
Currently, income from cryptocurrency trading is classified as "miscellaneous income" and subject to progressive tax rates as high as 55%. Proposals have been made to unify cryptocurrency tax rates at 20% to boost market competitiveness.
Compliance Policies for Cryptocurrencies:
Through these reforms, Japan is creating a more favorable environment for cryptocurrency innovation and growth within the Web3 sector.
Corporate Adoption of Blockchain Technology
Many major Japanese corporations are integrating blockchain into their existing businesses, utilizing tokens to enhance user experiences. Notable examples include:
Web3 Startups and Projects Japan’s Web3 startup ecosystem is steadily expanding, with the country’s rich cultural and intellectual property (IP) resources serving as a unique advantage. Using these assets, Japanese Web3 startups have launched globally acclaimed games, NFTs, and other projects. Hundreds of active local Web3 projects are thriving, and their numbers are growing.
Regulated Cryptocurrency Exchanges Japan’s regulatory framework ensures transparency and compliance for cryptocurrency exchanges. Currently, 32 licensed exchanges operate under FSA oversight, including:
With a monthly spot trading volume of approximately ¥900 billion ($6 billion), Japan is a key player in the global cryptocurrency market.
