Asteria Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Yoichiro Hirano; Securities Code: 3853; hereinafter 'Asteria') and Haudi Crypto Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Kazunori Asada; hereinafter 'Haudi Crypto') announced a business alliance between Asteria's corporate JPYC deposit and withdrawal management service 'JPYC Gateway' and the domestically developed hardware wallet*1 'Openloop' (hereinafter 'Openloop') developed by Haudi Crypto. Through this alliance, they will provide a secure management environment for private keys*2 to companies introducing JPYC Gateway, accelerating the utilization of stablecoins by enterprises. Additionally, Openloop will be provided free of charge to the first 100 companies that adopt JPYC Gateway.
Background of the Business Alliance:
With the issuance of the Japanese Yen-pegged stablecoin JPYC*3 starting in October 2025 and a projected issuance scale of approximately 30 trillion yen by 2030, the use of stablecoins by companies is rapidly expanding. However, for companies to utilize stablecoins in their operations, secure management of private keys and signatures is essential. Given that private key leaks or unauthorized access pose direct business risks, high-level security is required. Most hardware wallets currently on the market are foreign-made, creating a demand for a highly reliable, domestically developed and supported device that can flexibly adapt to the evolution of the Japanese market.
Overview of the Business Alliance:
- Integration of hardware wallets for private key management in JPYC Gateway.
- Free provision of Openloop to the first 100 companies as a launch campaign.
- Joint development and provision of best practices for corporate stablecoin utilization.
About 'JPYC Gateway':
JPYC Gateway is a corporate JPYC management service. Transaction fees are 8 yen per transaction, significantly lower than general bank fees, and it can be integrated with existing ERP and accounting systems via ASTERIA Warp without coding.
