Japanese financial giant SBI Group announced a series of strategic partnerships with key players in FinTech, blockchain, and crypto — Ripple, Circle, Startale Group, and Chainlink. These agreements aim to fast-track the adoption of digital assets, foster the stablecoin market, and build infrastructure for tokenized assets in Japan and across the Asia-Pacific region.

Specifically:

Partnership with Ripple focuses on the distribution of the Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin in the Japanese market. The rollout will be handled by SBI VC Trade, the first licensed provider of electronic payment instrument services in Japan. RLUSD is expected to become available during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.
Collaboration with Circle includes the creation of a joint venture to promote the USD Coin (USDC) stablecoin in Japan, explore new use cases for USDC in Web3 projects and digital finance, and a $50 million strategic investment in Circle by SBI Group, coinciding with Circle’s listing on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
Partnership with Startale Group involves the joint development and launch of a global on-chain platform for trading tokenized real-world assets (RWA). The platform will enable users to trade 24/7, with instant settlement and fractional ownership of assets.
Collaboration with Chainlink will leverage the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to enable secure and compliant cross-chain operations with tokenized assets such as real estate and bonds. Moreover, SBI Group plans to use Chainlink Proof of Reserve for stablecoin reserve verification and Chainlink SmartData for on-chain recording of net asset value (NAV) data of tokenized funds.

These strategic initiatives highlight SBI Holdings’ ambition to become a leader in digital finance by building a comprehensive ecosystem for both institutional and retail investors. According to the company, partnerships with leading Web3 firms will accelerate the transition from traditional finance to decentralized technologies.

Japan’s FinTech sector continues to grow steadily, averaging 14% annual growth. Analysts project the sector to reach $30.2 billion by 2033.
