Could you elaborate on the classification of cryptocurrencies as crypto assets in Japan? I'm interested in understanding which specific digital currencies are recognized as such within the country's regulatory framework. Are there any notable cryptocurrencies that are widely recognized as crypto assets in Japan, and if so, what are the criteria for such classification? I'd also appreciate any insights you have on how this classification impacts the treatment and regulation of these assets in Japan.
