JPYC Eases Login Rules as Issuance Passes 10 Billion Yen
A yen-pegged token reaching a ten-digit cumulative issuance figure is a usage signal for yen-denominated on-chain payments, and the July update that removed one-time codes from issuance and redemption lowers friction for the businesses and services the company names.

JPYC Inc. says cumulative issuance of its Japanese yen stablecoin JPYC on the JPYC EX service has passed 10 billion yen, as of September 18, 2026. The company reported the growth alongside a July 2026 update that changed its authentication and security functions, and listed new blockchain and wallet support.
The announcement ships with a service change: JPYC EX overhauled its authentication and security functions in July 2026, adding passkey login and login combinations that pair ID and password with SMS authentication or voice authentication. One-time code authentication for transactions such as issuance and redemption is gone, which the company says lets users complete procedures more smoothly.
On the access side, the company reports support for new blockchains such as Kaia, account linking with HashPort Wallet, and a JPYC easy remittance function in that wallet that pre-sets the destination address, network, and send amount required for redemption. Named use cases include payments at physical stores, campaign incentives, services combining JPYC with points, corporate proof-of-concept work, and payments and fund transfers in Web3 services.
