EBC Foundation, the blockchain startup behind the cryptocurrency set to improve the inconvenient tax refund process for travellers, has announced the proposed launch of a new cryptocurrency exchange. The exchange is a reflection of the foundation’s mission to ease user experience through FinTech innovations and projects on the blockchain.
KRPEX, A New Crypto Exchange
Initially planned to launch their exchange, KRPEX, in Korea, EBC Foundation team had to relocate due to the uncertainty surrounding the country’s regulatory policies concerning cryptocurrencies and digital assets in Korea.
Japan, on the other hand, is the global leader in cryptocurrency investment and exchange, providing clear-cut guidelines for service exchange. The Japanese Yen is the strongest Bitcoin trading currency worldwide, topping other fiat currencies and accounting for 56.2% of the total trading volume of Bitcoin against fiat.
After officially introducing legislation to recognize cryptocurrency as legal tender in April 2017, Japan has become the leading market for digital assets.

Seizing this opportunity, the team has set their sights on Japan as the preferred location. Negotiations are well underway to list their EBCoin currency (Symbol: EBC) on local Japanese exchanges including BitFlyer, GMO and Zaif, after the conclusion of their token sale event on February 13th.
