Meanwhile, PassPay Co., Ltd. is dedicated to overcoming the "three walls" that hinder the use of cryptocurrencies in everyday life. The "three walls" refer to the challenges in using cryptocurrencies for real-world transactions due to significant price volatility, the underutilization of the borderless nature of cryptocurrencies, and the transitional period of increasing digitalization and cashless transactions.
PasspAY ALSO ISSUES the Japanese Yen stablecoin "JPYW". In addition to stablecoins like JPYW, PassPay also developed the "PassPay Wallet", a mobile wallet for managing various cryptocurrencies and NFTs on the blockchain.
