Wiki route
This entry sits under exchanges index. Read it against JVCEA Handled-Instrument Whitelist Framework — Token Listing Process + Green/Yellow Lists for peer / contrast context and FSA crypto-asset exchange registration system — number system / Local Finance Bureau jurisdiction / registration requirements for the broader system / regulatory boundary.
Overview
JVCEA publishes the “Green List” separately from its “Handled Crypto-Assets and Explanatory Documents” materials. The Green List is a mechanism to streamline member review for assets meeting specified requirements; it is not a nationwide permission list of assets that every operator may handle. The version updated on 2026-07-22 lists 31 assets, while the handled-assets materials were updated on 2026-07-27.
Timeline Key Milestones
- 2017-04 Registration framework for crypto-asset exchange operators began under the amended Payment Services Act
- 2018-10 JVCEA became a certified association under the Payment Services Act
- 2022-06-09 JVCEA announced the Green List system
- 2026-07-22 Current Green List updated, listing 31 assets
- 2026-07-27 “Handled Crypto-Assets and Explanatory Documents” updated
Reading the publications separately
- Green List: streamlines review under JVCEA’s criteria; inclusion does not mean every member handles the asset
- Handled Crypto-Assets and Explanatory Documents: public information on assets handled by members; check the operator and document update date
- Individual service interface: actual trading, deposits and withdrawals, recurring purchase, and other availability differ by operator and should be checked at the time of use
Current official snapshot
The following is based on JVCEA’s official publication pages reviewed on 2026-07-29. It does not compare volatile asset counts at overseas exchanges or individual operators. ^[Sources: https://jvcea.or.jp/statistics/document/greenlist/; https://jvcea.or.jp/statistics/document/assets/.]
| Publication | Update date | What it establishes |
|---|---|---|
| JVCEA Green List | 2026-07-22 | 31 assets and the requirements for Green List eligibility |
| Handled Crypto-Assets and Explanatory Documents | 2026-07-27 | Assets handled by members and the explanatory documents |
Strategic Implications
Green List inclusion does not automatically complete a member’s handling launch or filings and procedures with the FSA. Review, filing, service availability, and liquidity-management requirements should be checked in the latest JVCEA rules and each member’s official announcement. This publication does not establish a fixed review period, the presence or absence of external market makers, or rankings against overseas exchanges.
