Hitachi Solution: the new solution that supports companies in Web3 and blockchain developers

Hitachi Solution dives into Web3, presenting new programs for businesses and blockchain developers. 

According to what was announced, it seems that the subsidiary of the Japanese conglomerate is ready to support businesses by providing them with solutions that meet various needs.

Among others, Hitachi Solution offers training plans, consultancy, and creates use cases for companies, providing them with the development and maintenance of an infrastructure for Web3

Going into more detail, a new package just presented concerns the offer of family services. 

For example, cloud computing software-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service that uses Hyperledger Besu and the transaction signer Consensys GoQuorum provided by Web3 Labs from the UK. 

Other services already presented by Hitachi during this 2024 are then the “Enterprise Blockchain Support” package. This service already offers REST API (Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interfaces) for the management of smart contracts. 

Hitachi Solutions and Web3 in Japan: solutions for companies and Blockchain developers 

The new Web3 solution for companies and blockchain developers from Hitachi Solution aims to give the company a boost in the sector. 

In fact, Hitachi is currently a member of the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust. Not only that, in 2020, Hitachi was one of the main members of the open source community of Hyperledger, along with other giants like Accenture, American Express, IBM, and many others, to which Consensys later joined.

In 2023, together with Concordium Foundation, Hitachi participated in the development of a biometric crypto. 

Despite this background, the presence of strong Japanese competitors more integrated into the blockchain and Web3 sector has slowed its rise to leadership. 

Japan and crypto

Remaining in the territory of Japan, it seems that the country (and its citizens) is becoming increasingly inclined to embrace the crypto sector. 

In fact, on one hand, the report from Bitget Research in July 2024 highlights that Japanese crypto traders have surpassed the threshold of 350,000. This result positions Japan between the crypto market sizes of Turkey and Indonesia, and about two-thirds of those of South Korea.

This growing interest and use of crypto in Japan has not gone unnoticed. In addition to the continuous development of companies in the sector, as in the case of Hitachi, even politics seems to consider it. 

Recently, in fact, the leader of the Democratic Party for the People (DDP), Yuichiro Tamaki, promised in his election campaign a cut in crypto taxes.
