Well, we have heard some time ago that bitcoin is now accepted in Japan as a legal payment option.
Japanese authorities have decided to adopt it in their country, so currently if you go to japan just with access to your BTC wallet, you will be probably able to just spend this currency through the all time you are there: but I think that will happen not faster than in 3-4 years.
You need to spot a very important thing about that this goverment decided to make such a thing: the demand is now increased in there, because people will use it as a another way to pay in store or shop.
What most of you do not realize is it will not make sense for people to start using Bitcoin in a store or shop that accepts CASH and CREDIT CARD. Why would they start using Bitcoin if it is not really needed? They can use CASH it is more efficient and gives less problems.
So the Japan has made a very significant difference in bitcoin market capitalization, and same with the volume: the big part of it belongs currently to the citizens of this place.
This is the 2nd time I have seen this but without any evidence that proves it is true. Post it here and show us.
