Following the steps of Toyota Motor Corporation and Sony Network Communication, JR Kyushu Railway NFTs are\u00a0on Astar Network<\/a>, thanks to the blockchain\u2019s scalability, affordability, and expertise in the Japanese market.

Despite the country\u2019s strict listing regulations, Astar\u2019s native token $ASTR<\/a> is registered as a cryptocurrency rather than a security by the Japenese government.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, Astar has a Build2Earn program, safeguarded by Polkadot, that allows developers to earn incentives for building and maintaining their decentralized applications.

Thanks to JR Kyushu leveraging this blockchain technology, customers can acquire or earn digital assets that open up rewards and benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt Astar Network, we\u2019re excited to see more real-life use cases of enterprises exploring and leveraging NFTs to build closer relationships with their customers and provide new value. We look forward to supporting PRO Japan and JR Kyushu in their endeavor,\u201d commented Astar Network\u2019s Founder, Sota Watanabe, in a press release.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
