BOJ governor Kuroda speaking in parliament in Tokyo
- BOJ will persistently continue easing
- Doesn't see a problem with financial intermediation now
- Needs to patiently proceed with strong monetary easing for Japanese economy
- BOJ has no plan to issue digital currency at the moment
- Careful consideration needed for issuing digital currency
- Firms offering cryptocurrency services must have ample security steps in place
Seems like it's the same old message again from Kuroda. But he is touching a bit on cryptocurrencies. Over the weekend, the BOJ also sent a similar message here that there is no need for to venture into cryptocurrencies at the moment.
And that security comment on cryptocurrency firms is pointing towards the Coincheck incident last week.
