April 28, 2026: Japan's Financial Services Agency, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, National Police Agency and Ministry of Finance jointly requested major real estate and crypto associations to tighten checks on all property deals involving cryptocurrency.

Impact on crypto: raises AML/compliance and security costs for firms, likely slows crypto–real-estate adoption and tokenized property deals, and increases scrutiny for CEX/DEX/DeFi integrations and fundraising activities.
