Why is Japan's P2P market smaller than other Asia markets?+
Japan has had regulated centralised crypto exchanges since 2017 (bitFlyer, Coincheck, Bitbank, etc.) under FSA licensing — they offer deep JPY/crypto liquidity at tight spreads, so retail rarely needs P2P. P2P is mostly used by users avoiding the higher-KYC tier or doing cross-border arbitrage.
How is crypto taxed in Japan?+
Crypto gains are taxed as 'miscellaneous income' (zatsu shotoku) under progressive personal income tax rates: 5-45% national + 10% local inhabitant tax = up to 55% effective. There's no long-term capital-gains regime — short-term and long-term holds are taxed identically.

How does Binance P2P merchant tiering work?+
