Open House Group, a Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed real estate leader, has expanded its payment options to include XRP, Solana, and Dogecoin. This follows the company's January 2025 introduction of cryptocurrency payments.

Open House clients can now use XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Dogecoin (DOGE), alongside existing options Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), for all services, from property acquisition and design to construction, sales, and management.

The company attributes this expansion to soaring global cryptocurrency adoption and increased regulatory clarity, citing significant demand for crypto transactions. Open House views cryptocurrency as a key driver of future growth within its integrated real estate operations.

“This expansion provides our global clients with greater investment flexibility, while remaining compliant with individual country regulations,” Open House stated.

Open House, a top Japanese real estate firm with annual sales exceeding ¥1 trillion (approximately $6.7 billion), began accepting BTC and ETH in January 2025. However, its commitment to crypto and blockchain integration dates back to 2022, including sponsoring research on Bitcoin's Lightning Network. Yokiko Nishimura, who leads the firm's crypto initiative, has been involved in bringing crypto solutions to Japanese financial institutions and exchanges since 2015.

The Japanese government's supportive stance on crypto, exemplified by Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's endorsement of digital assets and Web3, and the recent approval of the Payment Services Act (providing regulatory guidelines for stablecoins and crypto brokerages), has further fueled this growth.
