Kirifuda Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Hideyuki Akagawa; hereinafter "Kirifuda") will exhibit at "Blockchain EXPO 2026 Spring," to be held at Tokyo Big Sight from April 15 (Wednesday) to April 17 (Friday), 2026. At its booth, Kirifuda will showcase 10 types of prototypes targeting five industries: finance, energy, entertainment, real estate, and DX, providing an environment where visitors can experience them on-site.

Current Market Environment in the Blockchain Domain

The financial infrastructure on blockchain is rapidly moving towards practical application. The outstanding balance of stablecoins reached approximately 320 billion dollars (about 47 trillion yen) as of April 2026, growing by 49% in the single year of 2025. The annual settlement volume exceeds 33 trillion dollars, establishing its position as a global payment infrastructure rather than merely a part of the speculative crypto asset market. On-chain financial assets are also accelerating. The RWA (Real World Asset tokenization) market, including US Treasury bonds, corporate bonds, and stocks, has expanded to approximately 26.4 billion dollars, recording a growth of about four times year-on-year. Major traditional financial institutions are seriously entering the market, with BlackRock deploying approximately 2.9 billion dollars in assets on-chain through its tokenized government bond fund "BUIDL," and DTCC announcing a project for tokenizing US Treasury bonds. In response to these developments in the financial sector, companies in non-financial sectors such as energy, real estate, and entertainment are also beginning to incorporate blockchain into their businesses. However, many companies still face challenges such as "how to apply it to their own business" and "difficulty transitioning from proof-of-concept to full-scale operation." Kirifuda has a track record of supporting over 100 companies and local governments in blockchain adoption, and its strength lies in proposing specific application methods tailored to the challenges of each industry.
