Sony Bank, a subsidiary of Sony Financial Holdings, is preparing to issue a USD-pegged stablecoin as early as fiscal 2026. The token aims to facilitate low-cost transactions for Sony’s gaming and anime content, bypassing traditional payment rails. The MOVE aligns with Sony Group’s strategy to monetize its ecosystem—PlayStation and Sony Pictures Entertainment accounted for 30% of external customer sales in FY2025.

The stablecoin will target U.S. users, reducing reliance on credit card networks and their associated fees. Sony Bank secured a U.S. banking license in October 2023 after spinning off from Sony Group. The conglomerate’s media dominance—from PlayStation to blockbuster films—positions it uniquely to drive crypto adoption in entertainment.
