Shiba Inu (SHIB) gains entry to Japan’s Green List for regulated crypto trading, alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, effective November 12, 2025.

The official inclusion of Shiba Inu (SHIB) into Japan’s “Green List” places it alongside notable cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Commencing on November 12, 2025, SHIB will gain fast-track trading access within the regulated Japanese market.
This development involves key figures like the Japan Financial Services Agency (FSA) and the Japan Virtual and Crypto Assets Exchange Association. The approved assets undergo rigorous vetting, meeting compliance standards necessary for market operations.
The addition of SHIB to the Green List is expected to increase its liquidity and visibility on Japanese exchanges. Market reactions suggest positive sentiment among traders and institutional investors, potentially boosting SHIB’s trading volume.
Financial implications include a proposed tax reduction from 55% to 20% on capital gains, a move speculated to encourage more investment in compliant digital assets. This aligns crypto assets with other traditional financial products, enhancing investor appeal.
As SHIB secures its position, eyes are set on its impact within the broader crypto market. Stakeholders anticipate shifts in trading dynamics and further adoption driven by regulatory clarity. Exchanges view this as an opportunity to widen their asset offerings.
Potential outcomes include augmented interest from retail and institutional spheres, influenced by a supportive regulatory environment. Historical examples show increased institutional flows and public perception improvements, particularly concerning Green List assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Being added to the Green List grants Shiba Inu a strong level of recognition. This confirms SHIB meets Japan’s official standards for compliance and can be widely handled within the country’s regulated crypto ecosystem. — Lucie, Shiba Inu Marketing Lead
