At the end of October, the exchange also started accepting new account signups for customers living in Japan, which had been suspended while regulator-mandated improvements at the exchange were underway.

Back in January, hackers stole some $533 million-worth of cryptocurrencies from Coincheck, which led to on-site inspections by regulators and a block on accepting new customers. Monex Group later acquired the platform in April in a $33.5 million deal.
Last month, Coincheck reported a loss of $5.25 million (588 million Japanese yen) for the Q3 period (Q2 in the Japanese financial year) as a result of the hack.
According to data from CoinMarketCap, the exchange has facilitated about $31 million in trading volume on its platform over the past 24 hours.
