 In the past, the Bank of Japan commented on the importance of addressing the issues raised due to the demand for government-backed digital currencies. The Governor of the Bank of Japan revealed that Japan is not in the race of developing a central digital currency, however, they are closing monitoring the global situation and development. Also, the assessment and research to understand its legal and technical perspectives are continuing to prepare beforehand in case of any future demand.

Japan is not alone in the race
