crowdsale will know today is the cut-off date for investing in the project. With close to US$150m collected during this sale process, there has been a lot of interest in The DAO. However, it is very likely a lot of tokens will be sold across exchanges in the first 72 hours as well.

Coincheck users will be able to buy The DAO tokens through JPY, similar to how the platform lets users buy Bitcoin and Ethereum. Credit card payments are not supported from day one, but they will be enabled shortly. But there is more, as Coincheck will be offering a complete The DAO token wallet solution as well, albeit it is advised to move these tokens to a user-controlled wallet at some point.

It is positive to see Japanese cryptocurrency exchanges continue their push to bring more positive attention to this ecosystem. Over the past few months, there has been a lot of exciting news coming out of Japan as far as Bitcoin and Ethereum are concerned. Coincheck will have a first-mover advantage by support The DAO tokens trading, and other changes are expected to follow this example.
