Sony to Restart Japanese Crypto Exchange Whalefin in 2023
Hey crypto enthusiasts!
Sony is set to restart the crypto exchange Whalefin, which it purchased from Amber Group last year. This marks the tech giant's first foray into crypto, after dabbling in Web3 through partnerships and investments.
The deal was reported earlier by Wu Blockchain, and now we have more details on the acquisition. Sony plans to relaunch Whalefin with a new app soon.
This move comes after Amber Japan, formerly known as DeCurret, was taken over by crypto finance firm Amber Group in 2022. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Sony's entry into the crypto space is an exciting development! The company has filed a patent for transferring non-fungible tokens (NFTs) between different games and consoles.
