Happy New Year! 

Various online payments appeared in 2018, and I tried to find which direction towards Japanese cashless society. In overseas articles, I often saw the cryptographic currency, but in Japan the point system has developed and spread, so I actually decided to incorporate both in settlement. As for social media in Japan many people use LINE, so it seems easy to use as a smartphone settlement so I decided to take “LINE Pay” settlement. Although there may be few users in Japan, Paypal is major in oversea online payment. Therefore, we decided to introduce Paypal integrated with the appointment system, but any clients have not used it yet. Since the sharp rise of Bitcoin in 2017, the encryption currency is handled as investment target. I don’t know whether the cryptocurrency appropriate as settlement yet. As I looked up the cryptocurrency, I found out that it was drawing attention as a settlement of a social problem-solving. I’ve rarely seen “ICO (Initial Coin Offering by Encryption Currency)” in Japanese economic articles. I’m not sure how difference between Japanese use and overseas use such as how to use of IT technology or a different way of thinking about encryption currency. In 2018 I became crazy about reading white papers which is cryptocurrency planning documents and technical documents. Besides, I’ve been eager with collecting Airdrops which are free distribution of ICO. I am very interested in cryptocurrency as settlement method for social problems solving. So I would like to invite all of you to know ICO. Then I decided to introduce cryptocurrency settlement and explanation of ICO in consulting in 2019. And some of social medias which cryptomania often use are rare for Japanese. Common Japanese will not use them except IT Engineers. We also introduce them.
