Abstract

The economic bubble bursting resulted in a large number of non-performing loans in Japanese financial institutions, which weakened their functions and prevented them from extending credit for normal economic activities. However, cryptocurrency operations are thriving in Japan. In this way, this paper focuses on non-performing assets and cryptocurrencies. The goal is to use literature analysis methods to summarise the development process, types of issuance, mechanisms, evaluation models, application scenarios, and trends in how cryptocurrencies are supervised.
