The new trading platform is to be launched under the DLTa21X brand name after receiving all required regulatory approvals in Japan.

B. Matthew Hornor, Executive Chairman of DLTa21, said, “We are delighted to collaborate with Coinsquare as our strategic digital currency trading platform partner in Japan. In addition to fast-growing interest in Japan to develop world-class decentralized applications on the blockchain (dApps), Japan reportedly accounts for the majority of global Bitcoin trading. DLTa21 is committed to offering Japan’s 3.5 million plus cryptocurrency exchange traders truly world-class solutions and security.”

While customers in Japan will be the initial focus of the DLTa21X cryptocurrency exchange, based on applicable laws, regulations and restrictions, going forward DLTa21X plans to expand to other Asian markets as well.
