Corporate Analyst Fisco Tests Issuance of Bitcoin Bond in Japan

A financial data provider and bitcoin exchange operator in Japan is testing a digital bond denominated in the cryptocurrency.

As reported earlier this week by Bloomberg, Fisco – which launched a bitcoin exchange in September of last year and has invested in other exchanges like TechBureau – issued a test bond worth 200 bitcoins. A bond is a kind of debt issued over a certain period of time, usually paying out some form of interest in addition to the principal amount.

The three-year bond was exchanged from one company within the Fisco umbrella to another, according to the publication, and is said to provide a 3 percent return over the three-year period.
