Japanese Yen on U.CASH

The Japanese yen has no domestic instant rail in the U.CASH set, but it is fully served cross-border: SWIFT delivers yen from any country, and the card processors settle it worldwide.

Rails settle it at checkout; pegged tokens settle it on-chain. Both live on the same non-custodial U.CASH checkout.
