On the industry front, media reports pointed out that Japan proposed to define Bitcoin to regulate transactions.

According to reports, Japan's bicameral parliament has recently proposed amending existing laws, including defining virtual currencies in accordance with domestic laws.

According to the Nikkei report, the virtual currency's "asset-like value" and its ability to be used for online payments were emphasized. The report considered Bitcoin to be similar to legal tender such as the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen .

If passed, the amendment would mean cryptocurrency exchanges would be able to register with the country’s top financial regulator, the Financial Services Agency (FSA), a move lawmakers see as a way to improve industry oversight and prevent money laundering and terrorism financing.

At 13:40 Beijing time on March 7, Bitcoin/USD was 404.84, Bitcoin/Euro was 368.56, and Bitcoin/ RMB was 2714.00.
