BTCCSquare news:

Japan's financial regulators are taking decisive steps to clamp down on insider trading in cryptocurrency markets. The Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission (SESC) will soon wield new powers to investigate, fine, and prosecute offenders—mirroring existing securities trading standards. This move aims to close regulatory gaps that have left digital assets outside the scope of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA).

The framework, slated for completion by late 2025, comes as Japan's crypto user base swells to 7.88 million. Fines will scale with illicit profits, while egregious cases may face criminal referral. Market participants now confront a watershed moment: the same scrutiny long applied to stocks is coming for crypto.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
