The Japanese Financial Services Agency (FSA) has approved one more cryptocurrency exchange to operate digital currency business in the country, Bitcoin.com reported.
BitOcean Corporation, a Tokyo-based bitcoin startup, has become the 16th company to make it to the list of approved cryptocurrency exchanges. Founded in 2013, the company is developing two-way bitcoin ATMs (BTMs) and a bitcoin trading platform
The company’s website states:
“We are a Bitcoin startup company founded in Tokyo with the support from Bitocean and Atlas ATS. We are working on setting up a new Bitcoin trading platform in Tokyo while at the same time we are contributing to help with MT.GOX’s liquidation/rehabilitation process.”
