SBI VC Trade, the crypto exchange arm of Japanese financial giant SBI Holdings, has crossed a significant milestone. The platform has amassed roughly 1.94 million accounts as of April 2026, and a pending acquisition is about to push that figure considerably higher.

The numbers behind the surge

SBI VC Trade’s trajectory has been steep. The platform’s assets under custody have ballooned to ¥600 billion, roughly $4 billion. That figure represents a compound annual growth rate of 44.6% since March 2023.

The account base is about to get a major boost, too. SBI’s planned acquisition of Bitbank, announced in June 2026, is projected to add approximately 960,000 accounts. That would bring the combined total to around 2.92 million.

The exchange has already integrated accounts and assets from DMM Bitcoin during 2024-2025 and absorbed Bitpoint Japan’s assets in April 2026.
