The Story
With Japan determined to move forward with its plans on legalized casinos and integrated resorts, the country’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MOH) indicates that treatment for gambling addiction will be covered by public health insurance to alleviate concerns. Susumu Higuchi, the director of the Kurihama Medical and Addiction Center, weighed in on the subject, explaining, “Gambling addicts need to submit to a follow-up program on a long-term basis. There are many people who have not sought treatment. It is important to have them undergo therapy and rein in the number of patients.” The government hopes the new insurance coverage will, at least in a small way, help to counter concerns that legalizing integrated resorts will lead to a country full of gambling addicts and put to ease some of the more resilient anti-gambling voices.

The founder of RelayX and FloatSV took to the stage at the CoinGeek London Conference to talk about powering real-time micropayments with BSV.
