The Japanese government has officially responded to the Bitcoin reserve plan, stating that the volatility of crypto assets does not align with the current foreign reserve system.
The Japanese government recently responded formally to inquiries made by Senator Satoshi Hamada regarding the latest developments in the U.S. and other countries promoting Bitcoin reserves. The written response, issued in the name of Prime Minister Shiohara, clarified the government's stance on the possibility of holding crypto assets as reserves. Senator Hamada stated on the 11th of this month that 'I believe Japan should follow the U.S. and consider investing some foreign exchange reserves in Bitcoin and other crypto assets,' and sought the government's opinion on this matter. The reply indicated that Japan is currently unaware of the U.S. and other countries' moves to introduce Bitcoin reserves because these plans are still in discussion, making it difficult for the government to express its views. Furthermore, according to the legal framework governing special account operations, 'crypto assets do not fall under the category of foreign currencies,' and the current foreign exchange reserves are intended to stabilize foreign currency assets and foreign currency bond markets. The reply repeatedly emphasized that the management of special accounts prioritizes ensuring the security and liquidity of foreign exchange reserves. This indicates the government's recognition of the volatility (price fluctuations) of crypto assets, including Bitcoin, as inconsistent with the current system. Prime Minister Shiohara's official response reaffirms that as discussions about incorporating crypto assets into national reserve strategies progress both domestically and internationally, the Japanese government remains cautious.

Analysis: The U.S. elections have greatly increased the net worth of Ripple CEO and a16z co-founder.
Analysts pointed out that XRP's rise from 0.5 USD to 2.32 USD after the U.S. elections may have generated significant profits for Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse. According to CoinMarketCap, XRP has increased by 54.7% in the past 30 days, with a market cap ranking third. Garlinghouse stated, 'Since Trump's election victory, the cryptocurrency market cap has increased by over 1 trillion USD.' During the election period, Ripple donated 73 million USD, while a16z invested 70 million USD, including funds reserved for the next election in 2026. It is reported that Garlinghouse owns more than 6% of Ripple and a significant amount of undisclosed XRP tokens. He is also one of the top billionaires in the U.S. This election has tripled the value of Garlinghouse's XRP holdings, so his personal wealth is expected to have increased significantly. On the other hand, a16z co-founders Mark Andreessen and Ben Horowitz hold significant stakes in crypto companies, and their holdings are expected to have surpassed the funds invested in the U.S. political arena after the election. However, financial data on private company investments by a16z is not available, so detailed figures remain unknown.

Hester Peirce: After Gensler's departure, the SEC will no longer prioritize enforcement as the preferred tool for crypto regulation.
Hester Peirce, SEC commissioner who will remain after Trump's inauguration on January 20, has stated that there should be a significant shift in how the SEC handles the crypto industry after Gary Gensler's departure: 'We have a large toolbox, and we have previously tended to prioritize enforcement as our preferred tool. I believe when you see changes in the committee and its composition, the case mix will also change.'
