Backpack Teams Up With Japan’s Minna Bank to Bridge Banking and Crypto @Backpack has signed a memorandum of understanding with Minna Bank, the digital arm of Fukuoka Financial Group (FFG), one of Japan's largest regional banks. This cooperation will help bring together the traditional digital banking experience and on-chain crypto assets in Japan. International infrastructure provided by Backpack and Minna Bank's regulated local accounts will enable corresponding payment and asset management solutions.

Backpack and SK Securities are partnering to expand global access to Korean equities. The partnership combines SK Securities’ institutional expertise in Korea’s capital markets with Backpack’s global reach to bring Korean stock trading to eligible investors through the Backpack app. Building on our existing U.S. securities platform, the partnership also lays the foundation for collaboration in tokenized securities and real-world assets, connecting established capital markets with blockchain-based financial infrastructure. Another step toward a single globally regulated financial marketplace.
