At WebX 2025 in Tokyo, Japan's Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba described Bitcoin and crypto as a "once-in-a-century opportunity" to address Japan's economic challenges like regional stagnation and population decline. He linked Web3 technology to social innovation and pledged government support, including tax reforms planned for 2026 to create a more attractive crypto regulatory environment. These reforms aim to lower crypto tax rates, potentially drawing more institutional investment to Japan's digital asset market. However, Ishiba's cautious stance on Bitcoin as a national reserve asset shows limits to the administration's crypto enthusiasm.
