Through this acquisition, Binance enters the Japanese market, as a Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA) regulated entity.

It is important to note that the transaction’s terms weren’t made public. Through SEBC, Binance provides services that are governed by Japanese law. This is in an effort to promote a trustworthy cryptocurrency ecosystem worldwide.
