Wiki route
This entry sits under exchanges index. Read it against FSA crypto-asset exchange registration system — number system / Local Finance Bureau jurisdiction / registration requirements for the registration framework, Domestic Crypto Asset Exchange M&A and Consolidation History (2018-2026) for entity consolidation context, and FSA warning-letter issuance system for unregistered foreign crypto-asset exchanges for the unregistered foreign-operator side.
Purpose
The FSA “Registry of Crypto Asset Exchange Service Providers” (kasoutuka.xlsx) and the JVCEA member list are a continuously changing primary registry, with new registrations, business closures, corporate-name changes, registration-number reassignments, etc. This page functions as a template / log for recording those deltas chronologically.
Individual VASP entity pages (bitbank / LINE Xenesis, etc.) record point-in-time snapshots, but the overview of “what changed when” is consolidated on this page.
Recording template (per snapshot)
At each FSA publication update, append the following block:
## YYYY-MM-DD snapshot delta
- **Base snapshot**: FSA kasoutuka.xlsx dated Reiwa X, Month Y, Day Z
- **Total number of registered operators**: NN (previously MM, delta ±N)
- **New registrations**:
- Kanto Local Finance Bureau No. NNNNN — XX Co., Ltd. (registered YYYY-MM-DD)
- **Business closures / deregistration**:
- Kanto Local Finance Bureau No. NNNNN — XX Co., Ltd. (closed YYYY-MM-DD)
- **Corporate-name changes**:
- Kanto Local Finance Bureau No. NNNNN — old AA Co., Ltd. → new BB Co., Ltd. (YYYY-MM-DD)
- **Absorption mergers**:
- AA Co., Ltd. → absorbed into BB Co., Ltd. (YYYY-MM-DD)
- **Head-office location changes** (important cases only):
- XX Co., Ltd. — old Minato-ku, Tokyo → new Chuo-ku, Tokyo (YYYY-MM-DD)
- **JVCEA member-status changes**:
- Type I → Type I + Type II (acquired crypto-asset derivatives trading business)
- **Impact on this page's entities**:
- jp-exchange-XXX — last_tended update required
- **Industry topics**:
- (notable items: institutional changes / large M&A / major new entrants, etc.)
Comparison of saved registry snapshots
Source: The entire table was counted and compared from the rows in the FSA kasoutuka.xlsx 2024-08-20 archive, 2025-02-06 archive, and 2025-09-07 archive, checked on 2026-07-29.
| Archive timestamp | Registered operators | Entries visible in the archived file |
|---|---|---|
| 2024-08-20 | 29 | FTX Japan is listed |
| 2025-02-06 | 29 | DMM Bitcoin (No. 00010) and CoinBest are listed |
| 2025-09-07 | 28 | No. 00010 is absent and OSL Japan is listed |
This table shows only differences visible in the archived files themselves. It does not infer the effective date or reason for a change unless another primary notice establishes it.
Update workflow
- Confirm FSA publication — directly download the update to
kasoutuka.xlsx(usually on a semiannual basis: 4 month / 10 month, with ad-hoc updates) - Diff against the previous snapshot — mechanically compare the registration-number column / corporate-name column / head-office-location column
- Append a snapshot delta block to this page
- Update
last_tendedof affected entity wikis - If a newly registered operator’s wiki is not yet prepared → list it as an addition candidate in missing-financial-institutions-backlog
- For a closed operator’s entity wiki → change to
status: deprecatedand append the closure date - Reflect in the CHANGELOG (record the snapshot reflection date in the domain INDEX)
Reconciliation with the JVCEA member list
There are cases where FSA-registered operators and JVCEA members do not perfectly match (immediately after registration while the JVCEA-membership procedure is in progress / cases of membership refusal, etc.). This log also notes the deltas:
- FSA-registered + JVCEA member: the standard form
- FSA-registered + not a JVCEA member: requires watching (a non-self-regulatory-membership status is unusual)
- FSA-deregistered + JVCEA-remaining: a typical business-closure-lag pattern

[!info] 校核状态 confidence: likely (v1.0 template page, newly created 2026-05-25). This page is a log-type wiki that is continuously appended and updated, and the authenticity of the diff should be confirmed against FSA primary sources whenever each snapshot delta block is added. The template structure itself is suited to stable operation.
