SBI Shinsei will launch a standing deposit product this fall that pays normal yen interest plus a crypto voucher worth 20% of the interest payment, redeemable for BTC, ETH, or XRP through SBI VC Trade. Customers need an SBI VC Trade account to redeem it, which is the point: SBI is turning bank savings into a clean funnel for its exchange arm. Before the permanent rollout, it will run a three-month campaign from June 10 covering ordinary deposits and time deposits from three months to five years.
