SBI Holdings and the Solana Foundation have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the development of on-chain finance in Japan, with plans to establish the country as a leading hub for digital financial markets across Asia.

The partnership will focus on creating a new market for Japan-originated digital financial assets by leveraging the Solana blockchain as the core infrastructure. Through the initiative, the two organizations intend to support the tokenization of traditional financial products while expanding blockchain-based payment and settlement capabilities for both domestic and international markets.

As part of the collaboration, SBI Solana Global plans to develop several key initiatives. These include supporting the issuance and distribution of stablecoins, including JPYSC, as well as facilitating the structuring and distribution of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). The planned RWA offerings will include corporate bonds, commercial paper, investment funds, and real estate assets, reflecting the growing interest in bringing traditional financial instruments on-chain.

The partnership will also prioritize the development of cross-border settlement infrastructure, enabling more efficient international transactions through blockchain technology. In addition, SBI Solana Global intends to provide institutional-grade on-chain financial services designed to meet the needs of professional investors and financial institutions.

Another area of focus will be next-generation payment infrastructure for the emerging AI-agent economy. As autonomous AI systems become more involved in commerce and financial operations, the partners aim to create blockchain-based payment rails capable of supporting machine-to-machine transactions and programmable financial services.

The collaboration represents another step toward integrating blockchain technology into mainstream financial markets, particularly in Japan, where regulatory clarity and institutional participation continue to expand. By combining SBI Holdings’ established financial ecosystem with Solana’s high-performance blockchain network, the initiative seeks to accelerate the adoption of tokenized assets and digital financial infrastructure.

Looking beyond Japan, SBI Group and the Solana Foundation stated that the partnership is designed to support seamless collaboration with financial markets across Asia and globally. The long-term objective is to contribute to the development of next-generation on-chain financial infrastructure while strengthening Japan’s position as a regional leader in blockchain-powered finance.
