DeCurret to Launch the  First Service in Japan for MultipleUsing Virtual Currencies

A New Yet Familiar and Convenient Way to Use Virtual Currencies

As the first step in developing services that use virtualfor non-virtual currency transactions, DeCurret Inc. (HQ: Tokyo, Chiyoda Ward: : Kazuhiro Tokita) has begun offering an “e-money recharging” service as a way of using virtual currency for non-speculative purposes today.

By offering a leveraged trading service and beginning to handle Ethereum, DeCurrent is to expand its virtual currency trading lineup.

Until now, users have needed to exchange virtual currency for legal currency (yen), which is then transferred to the user’s bank account for use. Now, however, a user can use his or her smartphone to exchange virtual currency for e-money*¹, which can then be used for payment at stores.

Customers can recharge their e-money accounts using virtual currency simply by selecting the desired brand in the DeCurret app and entering a recharge amount. Usage can be customized based on the assets a customer holds as well. For example, customers can recharge their accounts using a combination of several virtual currencies.

Available Brands

With this service release, we are also starting to offer leveraged trading. The service includes various functions aimed at mitigating risk from market fluctuations, such as high-volume contract processing with our high-speed engine and automatic loss-cut system.

We have added Ethereum to the virtual currencies we handle, bringing the total number of virtual currencies that can be used in to five*².

We are striving to virtual currency into something all people can use with ease. forward, we plan to add further value transfer to our existing payment services, and expand the exchange functions and services we offer
