News out of Barcelona today, Rakuten's CEO Hiroshi “Mickey” Mikitani announced they will be launching Rakuten-coin. This could be a first to market push to get ahead of Amazon and other large, global retailers, but Rakuten is no new comer to crypto.
今日のバルセロナからのニュース、楽天のCEO Hiroshi「Mickey」Mikitaniは、彼らが楽天コインを発売すると発表しました。 これは、Amazonや他の大手グローバルな小売業者よりも先に進出するための最初の市場投入である可能性がありますが、楽天は、

Rakuten first became involved in crypto back in 2014 with their investment in Belfast, Ireland based Bitnet Technologies. Fast forward two years, Bitnet was struggling to survive. So in August of 2016 Rakuten acquired Bitnet's IP and assets, created Rakuten Blockchain Labs and brought over Stephen McNamara Bitnet CTO and Fergal Down who was the VP of engineering.
楽天は、アイルランドのBitnet Technologiesを拠点とするベルファストに2014年に投資し、暗号を取り戻しました。 早い2年、Bitnetは生き残るために苦労していた。 だから、楽天ブロックチェーン研究所を設立し、スティーブン・マクナマラ・ビットネットCTOとFergal Downをエンジニアリング担当副社長に迎え入れた。
The announcement date of the coin has not been made public yet, nor has information of how it will be distributed. I imagine it will be a POS coin with conversion from existing point holders, but we will see. Follow Rakuten on twitter for the latest information on this or check out their block which also features their twitter fee here.
コインの発表日はまだ公表されておらず、配布方法に関する情報もありません。 私はそれが既存のポイント保有者からの転換を伴うPOSコインになると想像していますが、私たちは見るでしょう。 Twitterの最新情報をTwitterでフォローしたり、Twitterの料金を紹介しているブロックをチェックしてください。
I have a bit more interest in this than most because my wife and I use Rakuten a lot and occasionally sell items on it. I better let my wife know to stop spending her points so we can redeem them for crypto!
私は妻と私が楽天を多く使い、時にはアイテムを売っているので、これ以上のことに少し関心があります。 私は、私の妻が彼女のポイントを使うのを止めることを知って、私たちがそれらを暗号のために償うことができるようにするのがよいでしょう!
In closing, this is a big deal. I keep saying crypto is not going away and we are at the beginning of it so HODL. Yes, there will be down days and hard times, but the future is bright. These mega corporations know this as is evidenced by their involvement behind the scenes for years. All the indicators are there, don't give into FUD and most importantly DYOR Do Your Own Research!
終わりには、これは大きな問題です。 私は暗号が遠ざかっていないと言って、私たちはHODLの始めにいます。 はい、休日や苦しい時がありますが、未来は明るいです。 これらのメガコーポレーションは、何年もの間、シーンの裏に関わっていることからもわかる。 すべての指標はそこにあり、FUDに与えてはいけません。最も重要なのは、自分の研究を行うDYORです!

Download the Tsutaya app and you can check it out. I don’t go there often enough to know how it works, but the last time I updated my app and rental card, I was totally surprised. I meant to write a post about it and then forgot.

Loyalty point type systems have been a powerful mechanism for Retailers to control and Sell products to consumers. It's going to be very interesting to see how these transition to a free market Crypto Asset World.
