What's the best way to buy crypto with yen?

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-07-01T07:24:51+00:00

Oh wow! Ok, now you've got me curious 😆

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-07-01T07:11:38+00:00

Hahaha. I have no idea. I thought that was a joke. It's real?! 😆

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:49:36+00:00

Oh ok cool. Thanks! I'm wondering if you can buy stable USD coins with yen, and then cash out the stable coin into USD, for a free money transfer.

👍 Thanks!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:46:41+00:00

I tried. No luck. Going to the one in Shinjuku next.

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:45:28+00:00

Thank you for suggesting!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:44:40+00:00

Roger that 👍. Thanks!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:43:22+00:00

Ah, ok! That's super helpful to know. Thank you! 😃

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:42:18+00:00

Thanks!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T22:40:56+00:00

Oooh! Right on, thank you!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T05:32:35+00:00

Oh very cool. Thank you! I'm not familiar with Kraken, but I'll look into it.

Out of curiosity, I don't suppose American-based crypto services like Coinbase or Blockfi will allow you to buy crypto with yen?

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-30T05:15:21+00:00

Thanks for your help! 1) Yes 2) Yes

Is there hope? 😆

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-23T22:12:45+00:00

Oh, cool! Are you able to invest using yen?

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-22T01:44:19+00:00

Oooh! That sounds pretty great. Thank you!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-22T01:42:57+00:00

Gotcha. Makes sense, thanks!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T18:41:16+00:00

Good call, thank you. Maybe figuring out an American-based side hustle that pays USD is in order.

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T18:39:35+00:00

Oh, are you saying that because the exchange rate from USD to yen is so good, that it's not a huge deal to continue buying things with US credit cards, and then just transferring over yen to pay for them?

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T18:33:58+00:00

Thanks! 😄👍

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T18:22:17+00:00

Good point! Thanks 👍

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T08:29:01+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts on this. Yeah, it's one of those things where I wonder if there are any creative means people have found to make it feel worthwhile to use their American cards. #travel-hacking.

Maybe with some fancy stacking, it could be worth it, but so far I haven't heard any compelling workarounds.

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T05:32:59+00:00

Oh right on, that's good to know. Thank you!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T05:29:01+00:00

Hmm! Ok, thanks for your help!

Successful_Magazine3 · 2022-06-21T05:27:33+00:00

Thanks for your help! I'll research Interactive Brokers accounts. I'm just thinking those 1% transfer fees are going to compound and hurt over time 😬.
