A major Japanese pension fund—which handles retirement money for about 1,200 small and medium-sized businesses—is going to start investing in cryptocurrency during the 2026 fiscal year. It plans to put 1% of its total money into crypto. This is a big deal because large, traditional institutions in Japan rarely invest in crypto. How They Are Doing It Instead of buying individual coins directly, the fund will invest in a "passive fund." Think of this like a packaged basket of different cryptocurrencies put together and monitored by professional hedge funds. Moving the Money Around To make room for crypto and protect against currency drops, the fund is shifting its puzzle pieces around. Here is what their new investment mix will look like: 70% in Japanese Yen cash/bonds (down from 80%) 10% in stable foreign currencies (like the US Dollar) 5% in crypto 5% in gold 5% in emerging market currencies (like developing countries) In short: They are selling off some of their Japanese cash to buy crypto, gold, and other foreign assets so all of their eggs aren't in one basket. $RE $SPCXB #japancorporatepensionfundallocates1%tocrypto
