XEM support added to Japanese cryptocurrency exchange Zaif

Zaif Exchange has announced that it has added another currency, XEM, into its trading platform.

XEM is the cryptocurrency of the NEM blockchain platform. At the time of this press release, the XEM market cap is 95.4 million USD at coinmarketcap.com.

The NEM blockchain technology has a huge following in Japan. Zaif CEO Takao Asayama has been the official spokesperson for NEM in Japan over the last few months and has been officially assigned as Director, NEM Japan.

Currently, the Zaif exchange trades only Bitcoin and Monacoin. With the inclusion of the XEM/JPY currency pair – the XEM/BTC pair will follow in the next 2 weeks – Zaif Exchange is well poised to take the pole position in Japan as a premier exchange, especially given that the NEM project is well received in Japan.
