倭国語🇯🇵
素晴らしいコメントをありがとうございます！
まさにおっしゃる通りで、単に payments を digitize するだけなら、ブロックチェーンを使わなくても既存の銀行送金インフラで十分「デジタル化」されていますよね。だからこそ本質は、決済の前段階にある契約・貨物書類・物流データなどのレイヤーを統合し、そこから決済までを一気通貫でつなぐことだと感じています。
決済レイヤーだけをブロックチェーン化しても、その前段の「貨物書類・契約レイヤー」が紙のままでは、本当のDXにはなりません。ここが整うことで、XDCのようなTradeFiチェーン＋ISO20022コインの本領が発揮されるフェーズが来ます💎
今回の Electronic Negotiable Cargo Documents Convention は、まさにその“前段レイヤー”をグローバルに揃えるための一歩だと思っています。

Thank you so much for this insightful comment!
I completely agree – if the goal is just to digitise payments, we actually don’t need blockchains at all. Existing banking rails already offer a fairly “digital” payment experience. The real value of DLT, in my view, is to integrate the upstream layers – contracts, cargo documents and logistics data – and connect them seamlessly all the way through to settlement.

Even if we only put the payment layer on-chain, as long as the documentary and contractual layer remains paper-based and siloed, we will never achieve genuine digital transformation in trade. Once that upstream layer is standardised and digitised, we finally enter a phase where TradeFi chains like XDC and ISO20022-aligned tokens can show their full potential💎

That’s why I see the new Electronic Negotiable Cargo Documents Convention as a crucial step towards harmonising this “preceding layer” at a global level. December 12, 2025

【日刊 アジアのエネルギー最前線】 AI革命で電力が爆増する，倭国はどうするのか

キャノンの杉山大志氏が，米国の専門家と，ＡＩ革命による電力需要の爆発的激増にどう対応するか，議論する。米国の場合には，トランプ政権がある限りシェ-ルガスで対処可能だが，倭国の場合は問題が多い。気候変動にも一定の配慮を行う政治的拘束があるし，原発の増設には時間を必要としている。２０３０年に１３０％の需要増，と言う観測の中，倭国の取り得る手段は，とりあえず既設原発の再稼動の促進，と言うことか。
