Japan is expected to launch a Bitcoin ETF as early as 2028. With the revised Financial Instruments and Exchange Act bringing crypto assets under the regulatory scope of financial products, Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) plans to adjust rules related to investment trusts, allowing funds and ETFs to hold crypto assets as primary investment targets. Multiple asset management institutions have already expressed interest in participating. Japanese institutional investors' interest in crypto assets is on the rise. A survey by Nomura Holdings and Laser Digital shows that approximately 79% of institutional investors and family offices plan to invest in crypto assets within the next three years.However, unlike the US Bitcoin ETF, which is primarily driven by institutional funds, Japan's institutional investor base is relatively limited, and a high proportion of household financial assets are held in cash. Therefore, individual investor funds are likely to become the main source of inflows. Some analysts believe that Japan's Bitcoin ETF could attract up to 3 trillion yen in inflows by FY2028. (Nikkei)

Odaily Odaily News: BIT Official's daily chart analysis indicates that spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded net inflows for nine consecutive trading days, with institutional buying power accumulating steadily and providing support for prices.It notes that Strategy has invested approximately $11 billion this year to increase its Bitcoin holdings. The combination of ETF inflows and corporate buying is helping to strengthen market absorption capacity. The analysis suggests that, in the absence of significant risk event disruptions, the current market structure remains supportive of Bitcoin's gradual upward trend.
According to analyst Markus Thielen, Bitcoin’s demand structure is gradually recovering. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) continues its accumulation, providing steady buying support; the Coinbase Premium is rising steadily; and spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a single-day net inflow of $664 million—the highest level since mid-January. Corporate treasury purchases, ETF inflows, and U.S. spot demand are converging, while stablecoin liquidity continues flowing back into the ecosystem—collectively strengthening liquidity support. Analysts note that the market may be forming a new consolidation range; if these trends persist, the probability of price advancing toward the upper bound of this range is increasing—though the move will not be linear.
