Resona Holdings is a Japanese banking holding company that specializes in financial services. Founded in 2001, the company is headquartered in Tokyo and operates more than 300 branches across Japan. In 2018, Resona Holdings launched an initiative to explore blockchain technology and develop cryptocurrency-based products as part of its long-term growth strategy.
The move towards cryptocurrencies has enabled Resona Holdings to provide customers with innovative online banking solutions such as digital asset management and payments through mobile wallets. The platform also offers a range of investment options including stocks, bonds, funds and other instruments that are available for trading on exchanges like the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). Furthermore, the company has developed its own proprietary cryptocurrency called RES token which can be used to make transactions within the Resona network.
RES tokens are based on Ethereum’s ERC-20 protocol and serve as both a medium of exchange and store of value within the Resona ecosystem. As a holder of RES tokens you will not only be able to purchase goods or services from participating merchants but also stake your tokens for rewards such as discounts or loyalty points when making purchases at certain outlets affiliated with Resona Holdings’ partner companies.
In addition to this groundbreaking new service offering, Resona Holdings continues to innovate by providing customers with various traditional banking services ranging from savings accounts to loans through its vast network of physical bank branches located throughout Japan. This makes it one of the most comprehensive financial institutions operating in Japan today offering both traditional banking processes alongside cutting edge technological innovations related to cryptocurrency usage and adoption within everyday life scenarios.
