merchants don’t accept crypto at all really. There are a few that do it as a gimmick (mostly electronic stores) , you might find no one in the shop knows the procedure because they need to use a specific KYC wallet.
In Japan crypto is generally just seen as a speculative asset, and as that it’s very popular, but that’s it really 🥺
Interesting, so the merchant needs a KYC wallet? But not the customer?
I believe both need one. I’m not sure. Honestly I don’t try because I don’t want the attention it will bring, I already stand out enough here. Also I don’t buy much at these department stores, I stick to local shops wherever I can
