S.BLOX Becomes Japan’s First Registered Exchange to List NIGHT

S.BLOX announced that it has started handling NIGHT, becoming the first domestic crypto asset exchange operator registered with Japan’s Kanto or Kinki finance authorities to offer the token, according to the company.

Midnight’s achievement is especially noteworthy as it marks the network’s first exchange operation in Japan with support. Now Sony Group-affiliated S.BLOX offers a regulated solution for users looking to get in touch with the privacy-first blockchain space.

It confirmed the development endorsing its official X account, stating the listing broadens access to its ecosystem in Japan and deepens its reach throughout the region.

Japan has historically had very stringent certification standards for digital asset exchanges, and listings are significant for projects seeking to go on the exchanges as a regulated entity, as opposed to just an offshore platform.

Midnight Pushes Further Into the Japanese Crypto Market

Along with the NIGHT listing, there is a campaign of sorts to encourage early entry. Up to ¥14,000 in NIGHT can be earned by eligible users, depending on the conditions of the campaign.

The exchange is also offering extra incentives around the listing and is injecting a retail element into the listing from the get-go.

A New Regulated Gateway for the Midnight Ecosystem

NIGHT is Midnight’s native token, a blockchain privacy-focused ecosystem. Selective Disclosure is possible with Private Data, also using the zero-knowledge technology, and information can remain private, yet be verified if needed, with Midnight.

Its arrival on S.BLOX provides the project with direct access to Japan’s regulated exchange environment, and a new platform for the development of the local community.

A close-knit relationship with the wider Cardano ecosystem is also highlighted in the listing. S.BLOX has placed NIGHT on top of market access to crypto related tokens on Cardano, linking the two ecosystems for Japanese customers.

Japan Listing Expands NIGHT’s Global Exchange Reach

NIGHT had already gained access to international crypto trading venues, but the S.BLOX launch adds a different type of distribution: a locally registered Japanese exchange.

That’s important because Japan’s domestic market has a more regulated system than many crypto exchanges that are offshore. For Midnight, the S.BLOX listing creates a compliant entry point into a major Asian market while supporting its efforts to build a stronger regional presence.

The move also gives Japanese users a more direct connection to the Midnight ecosystem as the project continues expanding its community and infrastructure.

With S.BLOX now supporting NIGHT, Midnight has secured its first officially supported exchange presence in Japan, combining regulated market access with a launch campaign worth up to ¥14,000 in NIGHT rewards.
