[Japan's SBI Shinsei Bank Pilots Converting Deposit Interest into Mainstream Cryptocurrencies] According to CoinDesk, Japan's SBI Shinsei Bank will launch a pilot program on June 10, allowing customers to convert a portion of their deposit interest into BTC, ETH, or XRP. This initiative introduces crypto assets into traditional deposit products through the concept of 'interest conversion,' enabling users to gain exposure to cryptocurrencies without directly purchasing them. The program will proceed as a small-scale pilot, with further expansion depending on customer participation and the regulatory environment.
