The conference has released a new round of speakers and sponsors as Japan moves through a key phase of crypto regulatory reform. According to the event announcement, Japan’s House of Representatives has passed an amendment to the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act that would classify crypto assets as “financial products.” The proposal also includes lowering eligible crypto trading taxes from as high as 55% to roughly 20% under separate taxation. The latest sponsor and speaker lineup points to heavier participation from traditional financial firms. Mastercard, Fidelity International, Franklin Templeton, Swift and SBI Holdings are listed among the institutions backing the event or sending executives to speak. The two-day agenda is expected to cover stablecoin use cases, AI, tokenization and the evolution of regulatory frameworks. Featured sessions include a keynote by Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee and panels on Asia’s crypto growth drivers and retail payment transformation in the Asia-Pacific region. WebX said additional speakers and agenda items will be announced over time. The event also highlighted its 2025 edition, which drew more than 14,000 attendees from over 90 countries.490
