According to the stakeholders, Yahoo is considering investing in a virtual currency exchange company, "Bito Argo Exchange Tokyo" headquartered in Tokyo, through a subsidiary company.

The exchange company has already registered with the Financial Services Agency last December and plans to start actual exchange work in the future, if Yahoo realizes investment, Yahoo will enter the field of virtual currency for the first time .

With regard to the virtual currency, strengthening customer protection has become a big issue as a result of the problem that a huge virtual currency leaked out at the "coin check" of a major exchange company.

Meanwhile, IT companies have decided the policy of entering "cyber agent" and "LINE", a leading communication application company, as it is expected to grow as a business.
