野村證券和 GMO Internet 聯手探索在日本發行美元和日圓穩定幣

今天，野村證券宣布其數位資產子公司 Laser Digital 與 GMO-Z 的母公司 GMO Internet 進行合作，GMO-Z 發行紐約監管的穩定幣。

Japanese financial services giant Nomura Holdings has announced a new digital assets initiative today, in collaboration with GMO Internet, the parent of New York-regulated stablecoin issuer GMO-Z.

日本金融服務巨頭野村控股 (Nomura Holdings) 今天宣布與紐約監管的穩定幣發行商 GMO-Z 的母公司 GMO Internet 合作推出一項新的數位資產計畫。

The two companies will work together to explore the issuance of dollar and yen stablecoins in Japan, as well as the provision of a stablecoin-as-a-service solution within the Japanese market.

兩家公司將共同探索在日本發行美元和日圓穩定幣，以及在日本市場提供穩定幣即服務解決方案。

GMO-Z is licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) as a limited purpose trust company, the same charter held by Paxos and Gemini Trust, two of the largest stablecoin issuers in the United States.

GMO-Z 獲得紐約州金融服務部 (NYDFS) 許可，成為一家有限目的信託公司，美國最大的兩家穩定幣發行機構 Paxos 和 Gemini Trust 也持有同樣的執照。

Its GYEN and ZUSD stablecoins are available on the Ethereum, Solana and Stellar blockchains. They are also used in decentralized finance applications, such as Aave and Curve.

其 GYEN 和 ZUSD 穩定幣可在以太坊、Solana 和 Stellar 區塊鏈上使用。它們也用於去中心化金融應用程序，例如 Aave 和 Curve。

“This project has the potential to greatly enhance digital asset accessibility and innovation in the Japanese financial landscape,” said Kentaro Okuda, President and Group CEO, Nomura Holdings.

野村控股總裁兼集團首席執行官 Kentaro Okuda 表示：“該項目有潛力極大地增強日本金融領域的數位資產可及性和創新。”

“We are excited to work with GMO Internet to bring new possibilities to the Japanese financial industry and contribute to the creation of a more advanced and efficient financial system.”

“我們很高興與GMO Internet合作，為日本金融業帶來新的可能性，並為創建更先進、更有效率的金融體係做出貢獻。”

Tokenization has progressed a little faster in Japan than elsewhere, although it is also early days. For example, Japan has a secondary market for tokenized securities, ODX START, and there have been a reasonable number of institutional issuances of tokenized real estate.

日本的代幣化進程比其他地方快一些，儘管還處於早期階段。例如，日本有一個代幣化證券二級市場ODX START，並且已經有相當數量的機構發行了代幣化房地產。

Without a wholesale central bank digital currency (wholesale CBDC), stablecoins can enable the settlement of on-chain financial transactions.

在沒有批發央行數位貨幣（批發CBDC）的情況下，穩定幣可以實現鏈上金融交易的結算。

Stablecoin competition in JapanSince Japan's new stablecoin laws came into force last year, a wide array of stablecoin initiatives have been announced by various organizations.

日本的穩定幣競爭自去年日本新的穩定幣法生效以來，各個組織宣布了一系列廣泛的穩定幣措施。

Apart from GMO, the other existing Japanese stablecoin issuer is JPYC, which is starting to form alliances with other stablecoin initiatives.

除了 GMO 之外，另一個現有的日本穩定幣發行機構是 JPYC，該公司正開始與其他穩定幣項目結盟。

That includes Progmat Coin, the issuance platform initiated by MUFG and backed by other major banks, including SMBC, Mizuho and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust.

其中包括 Progmat Coin，這是一個由 MUFG 發起並由 SMBC、Mizuho 和 Sumitomo Mitsui Trust 等其他主要銀行支持的發行平台。

Japanese law supports three kinds of stablecoins. One is issued via a Trust company, which is the type supported by Progmat Coin and MUFG. Another is issued by a bank and is effectively a deposit token. A third is issued by the holder of a funds transfer (money services) license, which we believe JPYC has applied for.

日本法律支持三種穩定幣。一種是透過信託公司發行的，這是 Progmat Coin 和 MUFG 支援的類型。另一種是由銀行發行的，實際上是存款代幣。第三個是由資金轉移（貨幣服務）許可證持有者頒發的，我們相信 JPYC 已經申請了該許可證。

While JPYC is a startup, GMO Internet is a listed company. Together with GMO Financial it owns half of online bank GMO Aozora Net Bank.

JPYC 是一家新創公司，而 GMO Internet 是一家上市公司。它與 GMO Financial 一起擁有線上銀行 GMO Aozora Net Bank 的一半股份。

The bank will be the first to launch a use case under DCJPY the tokenized deposit solution founded by DeCurret. DCJPY evolved from the Digital Currency Forum, which involves more than 100 Japanese institutions and enterprises, including Nomura.

該銀行將成為第一家在 DCJPY（由 DeCurret 創立的代幣化存款解決方案）下推出用例的銀行。 DCJPY由數位貨幣論壇演變而來，該論壇涉及野村證券等100多家日本機構與企業。
