Astelia Announces 'Standard Wallet' and 'Certified Wallet' for Enterprise JPYC Management Service JPYC Gateway

Astelia Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yoichiro Hirano; Securities Code: 3853; hereinafter 'Astelia') announces the introduction of the 'Standard Wallet,' pre-integrated into JPYC Gateway, and the 'Certified Wallet,' verified for connectivity, as secure wallet solutions for enterprise asset management via its Japan-first enterprise JPYC※1 deposit and withdrawal management service, 'JPYC Gateway.' Additional JPYC-compatible wallets will be sequentially verified and added to the Certified Wallet list as they become available.

Background and Overview of Wallet Standardization and Certification

Astelia began offering JPYC Gateway, an enterprise deposit and withdrawal management service designed to enable corporate utilization of the Japanese yen-pegged stablecoin 'JPYC,' starting April 1.

For enterprises to use JPYC, they must hold a dedicated wallet (analogous to a bank account). To simplify wallet selection, Astelia has introduced the 'Standard Wallet,' which allows enterprises needing a new wallet to generate one directly within JPYC Gateway. Additionally, for companies already using a wallet, Astelia has established the 'Certified Wallet' designation as a guideline for connecting existing wallets to JPYC Gateway.

This standardization and certification enable operational staff to select the most suitable wallet according to their company's policies and begin secure and rapid JPYC operations. Astelia plans to continue verifying and expanding the list of JPYC Gateway Certified Wallets as new JPYC-compatible wallets are released.

Future Developments

As the representative director company of the Blockchain Promotion Council (BCCC), Astelia has been working since 2017 toward the realization of stablecoins. JPYC Gateway plans to expand its support for various stablecoins and enhance functionalities to meet the demands of the AI agent era.

As financial DX and AI adoption advance, the use of stablecoins in enterprises will become increasingly essential. Astelia will promote the adoption of JPYC and other stablecoins from both angles: leveraging the robust enterprise ecosystem built through 'ASTERIA Warp' and the consumer-focused capabilities of 'Click,' a no-code app development tool acquired last year, contributing to the creation of a 'self-reliant, decentralized, and collaborative' society it has aimed for since its founding.
