Japanese companies are investing heavily in Bitcoin! What does this mean? An explanation for beginners!
Hello! I'm John, your blockchain guide. Have you seen the words "Bitcoin" and "Blockchain" in the news or on the internet lately? You may be thinking, "I don't really understand what it is, but it seems amazing..." But don't worry! Today, I'll pick up the hot news that a certain Japanese company has made a large investment in Bitcoin, and explain it in an easy-to-understand way for everyone!
Main news item: What kind of company is Remixpoint?
The company that is getting attention in this news is a Japanese company called "Remixpoint Inc." This company is actually involved in a variety of businesses.
- Energy-related businesses: We are engaged in energy businesses that are related to our daily lives, such as electricity retailing.
- Financial related business: And here's the key point! Remixpoint has been operating a cryptocurrency (digital money like Bitcoin) exchange (a place where you can buy and sell stocks or foreign currency) under the name "BITPoint" for some time now.
In other words, it is a company that is already knowledgeable about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The latest news is that such a company has increased its purchases of Bitcoin.
What is Bitcoin (BTC)? A simple explanation for beginners
Some of you may be wondering, "I understand that Remixpoint bought Bitcoin, but what exactly is Bitcoin?" Don't worry, I'll give you a simple explanation!
BitcoinIn a word, it is like "digital money that can be used on the Internet." Its features are as follows:
- Not controlled by any particular country or bank: Ordinary money is issued and managed by a country or a central bank, such as the Bank of Japan for Japanese yen and the US dollar for the US central bank (the FRB: the central bank of the United States, similar to the Bank of Japan in Japan). However, Bitcoin does not have such a central administrator.
- Blockchain Technology: Bitcoin is supported by a technology called "blockchain." This is a system in which transaction records are stored in boxes called "blocks," which are then linked together like a "chain" and monitored and shared by computers around the world. This makes it very difficult to tamper with and is said to be highly secure. (It sounds complicated, but just think that it's hard to commit fraud because everyone is monitoring it!)
- There is a limit to the number of copies that can be issued: The total amount of Bitcoin issued is fixed from the beginning, so it is sometimes said to have a scarcity value like gold.
- BTC: This is the unit of Bitcoin. Just like "100 yen" in Japanese yen, "1 BTC" is counted in Bitcoin.
Don't you think it's like "money from the future?" This is one of the reasons why it is attracting attention around the world.

Why are businesses investing in Bitcoin?
You may be wondering, "But why would a company buy Bitcoin?" Here are some common reasons why companies invest in Bitcoin:
- Expectations for future value increase: Although the price of Bitcoin fluctuates greatly, there are companies that invest in it, believing that its value will increase in the long term. "Let's buy it now!" is what they say.
- Attractiveness as a new asset: Until now, the assets held by companies have mainly consisted of cash, stocks, real estate, etc. Bitcoin is attracting attention as a new type of asset (digital asset) that is different from these.
- Inflation Hedge: Some companies are choosing Bitcoin as a way to prepare for inflation, when the prices of things in the world rise and the value of money falls relative to it.
- Trust and future potential of blockchain technology: In some cases, people hold Bitcoin as a related asset, not just because of Bitcoin itself, but also because they have high hopes for the future of the blockchain technology that underpins it.
It is not clear which reasons Remixpoint prioritized, but it is believed that these are some of the reasons behind their decision.
What does this news mean for us?
"Hmm, I understand that the company bought Bitcoin, but does this have anything to do with us?" You might be thinking. Here's what we beginners might take from this news.
- Increased confidence in Bitcoin? The fact that a Japanese company like Remixpoint, especially one that operates a cryptocurrency exchange, is investing such a large amount of money in Bitcoin may show how much they believe in Bitcoin's future and value.
- Is it gradually penetrating society? In the past, Bitcoin was often described as "suspicious" or "unclear," but as more companies start holding it as an asset, it may gradually become more widely recognized and trusted in society.
- But don't forget to take note!:
- Price fluctuation risk: Bitcoin prices can fluctuate greatly, so keep in mind that while there are opportunities for big profits, there is also the possibility of big losses.
- There are no quick wins: It's not as simple as "Buy Bitcoin and you'll get rich instantly!"
- Invest at your own risk: Even if you are interested in Bitcoin, you should not suddenly invest a large amount of money. Start with a small amount, and be sure to study it thoroughly and understand the mechanism and risks before making a decision.
This news could be seen as a sign that Bitcoin and blockchain technology are not something special, but may gradually become involved in our economy and society.
