【About the company】

The company creates value through technology by implementing blockchain in society.

In order to promote the social implementation of blockchain, the company conducts PoC with partner companies, business planning, and R&D in the areas of scalability and interoperability, which are challenges for blockchain.

Blockchain technology is still in its infancy, but over the past few years, various demonstration experiments and R&D projects have been conducted around the world, and the groundwork has gradually been laid for social implementation in terms of both business and technology.

The company has also accumulated knowledge and expertise in the use of blockchain through joint projects with leading Japanese partner companies in the financial and mobility fields.

【Examples of Initiatives】

The company and Toyota Financial Service conduct a demonstration experiment for "proof of value" and "transfer of ownership" of vehicles using blockchain.

In the area of R&D, the company is developing solutions for scalability and interoperability, which are frequently pointed out as blockchain issues.

Since its founding in 2018, the company has been engaged in R&D with the policy of working on things that will be of great value in the medium to long term, rather than small immediate achievements. As a result, it is no exaggeration to say that we have the No. 1 technology in the area of "interoperability to connect blockchains" in Japan, and it is also highly regarded globally, as evidenced by our selection for a grant.

Aiming to put the results of the research to practical use, the company is currently developing a web application called "Cross Chain Bridge" that enables convenient transfers (cross-chain transactions) between different blockchains of rapidly developing stable coins. The project name is "TOKI," named after the migratory bird "Toki" (ibis), and will be offered globally from the time of launch.
