    Universal Asset Management Tokyo Review of SBI Ripple and XRP Olympics in Japan 2020


    The Tokyo Olympics in 2020 is one of the most anticipated events of the year. With an expected influx of tourists and foreigners, Japan prepares to deal with international and digital currencies. Japanese firms like Universal Asset Management Tokyo review the effect of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics on the SBI Ripple Asia and XRP. Read on to know more about them.

    SBI Ripple Asia

    In Japan, SBI Ripple Asia is consists of a combination of a total of 61 banks, which makes 80 percent of the country’s banking assets. MoneyTap is a critical application, with definite plans of partnering with overseas commercial banks. SBI Ripple Asia aims to expand the network of MoneyTap.

    According to speculations, MoneyTap will build strong partnerships with SCB, Shinhan Bank, TPBank, and Woori Bank. MoneyTap will partner with major commercial banks in other countries in Southeast Asia, which will be and launched this year. The Mitsubishi Bank of Tokyo will possibly deploy its subsidiary bank in Krungsri in Thailand. 

    Confirmed MoneyTap Application 

    Yoshitaka Kitao, the SBI CEO, has confirmed the MoneyTap application, which will they will integrate with XRP before the 2020 Olympics to be held in Japan. Because of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, many people will visit Japan and splurge in traveling and shopping. The economic effects of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, most notably to crypto is promising, as what you’ll find on Universal Asset Management Tokyo Review. 

    According to Tomoyuki Nii, the Overseas Investment Executive Officer at SBI Investment, XRP is available for them to use as a secure form of payment method because a platform such as Elliptic is protecting it. Yoshitaka Kitao was not kidding when he stated that significant banks would be using XRP and Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple CEO also made a similar statement back in 2018. There is even a rumor of Ripple having an IPO after a promising seed.

    The Ripple Drop

    Over the past ten years, the Ripple Drop had a significant impact on digital assets and blockchain technology. With the RippleNet Growth and Libra Launch in 2019, global governments come together, understanding the urgency of developing regulatory frameworks in the crypto world.

    The RippleNet was a success which grew as a global network connecting payment companies and banks. The company believes that it drastically increased the activity, volume, and even the onboarding of various global companies. There’s an increasing demand for On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) of RippleNet, which leverages XRP, making instant cross-border payments.

    With cashless payments as a significant preference in Japan, it’s only a matter of time until other cryptocurrencies are accepted. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics will bring out the battle of the altcoins and fiat currencies in Japan.

    Conclusion

    Firms like Universal Asset Management Tokyo review SBI Ripple and XRP to continue bringing positive impacts to the digital world, most notably in Japan. With the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, it’s an excellent opportunity for crypto companies to let more people know about the convenience and flexibility that alternative payment methods can provide, along with bank partnerships.

  3. Psychiatrists Less Likely To Accept Insurance than Other Physicians

    According to a study by Tara F. Bishop, M.D., M.P.H., of Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, NY, and colleagues, insurance acceptance rates are lower for psychiatrists than for other types of physicians. AXIS Capital is a group of companies with branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States, a global insurer and reinsurer, providing clients and distribution partners with a broad range of specialized risk transfer products and services. (The company also services SE Asian countries such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more.) There have been current calls and complaints for augmented access to mental health services, however low insurance acceptance creates a barricade to these services, according to the study background. Researchers used data from a national survey of office-based physicians in the U.S. to compute rates of recognition of private non-capitated (no set dollar amount) insurance, Medicare and Medicaid by psychiatrists vs. physicians in other specialties. The review also matched characteristics of psychiatrists who endured insurance and those who did not. According to the study's results, the percentage of psychiatrists who undertook private non-capitated insurance, Medicare and Medicaid in 2009-2010 was lesser than the percentage of physicians in other specialties (55.3 percent vs. 88.7 percent for private insurance; 54.8 percent vs. 86.1 percent for Medicare; and 43.1 percent vs. 73 percent for Medicaid).   "Nonetheless, our findings suggest that policies to improve access to timely psychiatric care may be limited because many psychiatrists do not accept insurance," the authors conclude. "If, in fact, future work shows that psychiatrists do not take insurance because of low reimbursement, unbalanced supply and demand, and/or administrative hurdles, policy makers, payers and the medical community should explore ways to overcome these obstacles." 
  4. 【Share】15 of the World’s Most Scenic Swimming Pools

    I always like water and sea. Overlooking my past 22 years, I seldom travel and record. Now I'm economically independent, so I'll be ready to reward myself a long journey to see the world. How deep I like geography when I was a child! I ran into this article and have feeling for it, so I share it to you. Summer’s sweltering heat is just weeks away, and if you’re already daydreaming about stunningly scenic swimming pools in exotic locales, there’s no inspiration like these 15 cool pools around the world. From the world’s largest man-made pool in Chile to cliffside infinity pools overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, these swimming spots are among the world’s most beautiful. Marina Bay Sands Hotel, Singapore [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-marina-bay-sands.jpg"] When most people envision a pool with an incredibly scenic view, they most likely think of tropical beaches, not skyscrapers – yet there’s no denying that the scenery at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel pool is absolutely breathtaking. Not only is this nearly 500-foot-long pool set into a rooftop skypark, 679 feet above the ground, but it’s an infinity pool, giving swimmers the feeling that they could swim right off the edge of the building. The pool looks out onto one of the world’s most modern cities, which is brilliantly illuminated once the sun goes down. Bondi Icebergs, Sydney, Australia [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-icebergs-bondi-australia.jpg"] Can’t decide between a peaceful swim in an enclosed pool or a romp in the ocean surf? You can have both at the incredible saltwater pool at Bondi Icebergs. The ocean waves break right into the pool. Unlike most of the other swimming pools on this list, Icebergs is open to the general public for a nominal fee. Ubud Hanging Gardens, Bali, Indonesia [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-ubud-hanging-gardens.jpg"] (image via: redvisitor) Not only does each villa at the Ubud Hanging Gardens Hotel in Bali have its own private infinity pool, but some guests get lucky enough to snag a room with a pool positioned directly over the main infinity pool for an experience unlike any other. From any of these pools, you can gaze into the jungle at monkeys and wild birds – not to mention a Balinese temple. Conrad Rangali Islands, Maldives [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-rangali-islands-maldives.jpg"] (image via: kta public relations) What’s not to love about this gorgeous infinity pool at the Conrad Rangali Islands hotel in Maldives? Lounging on a chaise placed on a special platform in the pool, all you can see is sparkling, clear blue waters. Kempinski Hotel Ishtar, Dead Sea, Jordan [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-kempinski-ishtar-dead-sea.jpg"] (images via: theboyg, xihalife) Literally the lowest point on earth at 1,300 feet below sea level, the north end of the Dead Sea is a beautiful place, and the Kempinksi Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea is the ideal home base from which to explore it – particularly due to its collection of serene pools and lagoons overlooking the sea. Evason Phuket, Thailand [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-evason-phuket.jpg"] (image via: edachsund) It’s difficult to imagine anything that could make this image of the adults-only infinity pool at the Evason Phuket Resort look more like paradise (except maybe a frozen organic daiquiri). Surrounded by 64 acres of tropical parklands and gardens, the Evason pool overlooks clear blue waters with a grassy island in the distance. Hayman Great Barrier Reef Resort, Queensland, Australia [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-hayman-great-barrier-reef.jpg"] (images via: hayman.com.au, sarah_ackerman) Seven times larger than an Olympic swimming pool, the pool bar at the Hayman Great Barrier Reef Resort in Australia is practically a small sea unto itself. Actually, it’s a pool-within-a-pool; the smaller central pool is freshwater and heated while the outer lagoon-like pool is as salty as the sea that lies just steps from the hotel. Four boardwalk bridges connect this little slice of paradise to the hotel. Intercontinental Hotel, Hong Kong [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-intercontinental-hong-kong.jpg"] (images via: intercontinental hotel, designsxtra) Another rooftop pool with a prime city view is the infinity pool at Hong Kong’s Intercontinental Hotel. Hotel Caruso, Ravello, Italy [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-hotel-caruso.jpg"] (images via: citalia) Renowned for its spectacular rocky cliffs overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, Italy’s Amalfi Coast is one of the most beautiful places in the world. At Hotel Caruso in Ravello, guests can enjoy these views from a heated infinity pool on a clifftop 1,000 feet above sea level. The modern pool is a stunning contrast beside the historic 11th century hotel, a former palazzo. Golden Triangle Resort, Chiang Rai, Thailand [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-golden-triangle-resort.jpg"] (images via: igor prahin) High above the Mekong River where Thailand, Laos and Myanmar meet is this elegant free-form infinity pool that seems to spill out onto the tropical vegetation that surrounds it. San Alfonso Del Mar, Chile [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-san-alfonso-del-mar.jpg"] (images via: hipster travel guide) The San Alfonso Del Mar isn’t just one of the most beautiful pools in Chile – it’s the largest pool in the world, measuring more than half a mile in length and reaching 115 feet deep (an amazing 11 stories!). The 66 million gallons of water needed to fill this mind-boggling pool come straight from the adjacent Pacific Ocean. It costs $4 million a year just to keep it clean. Hotel Joule, Dallas, Texas [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-hotel-joule-texas.jpg"] (images via: urban fabric, lost at e minor) Dallas, Texas is home to a stunning cantilevered rooftop pool, which not only juts out eight feet from the 10-story Hotel Joule, but features a glass end wall. Rio Calma, Fuerteventura, Spain [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-rio-calma.jpg"] (images via: bogoboo, krzysztof) The Canary Islands look even more magical when you’re enjoying the salt lagoon at the Rio Calma Hotel in Fuerteventura. The lagoon looks out over the white sand beaches that border the Atlantic Ocean. Cavo Tagoo, Mykonos, Greece [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-cavo-tagoo-mykonos.jpg"] (images via: bogoboo, homesresult) Gaze out at the iconic all-white architecture of Mykonos from the still, soothing waters of your own private infinity pool at the Cavo Tagoo Hotel. A number of rooms at the Cavo Tagoo have their own pools including the ultra-luxurious 2-bedroom Golden Villa, where the private walled infinity pool – secluded from view of other guests – offers a full sea view and blends right into the horizon. Gellert Baths, Budapest, Hungary [img src="http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/scenic-swimming-pools-gellert-baths-budapest.jpg"] Most interiors as beautiful as this are cathedrals, where it’s not exactly polite to lay on your back and stare up at the ceiling. In this case, however, leisurely gazing is not just appropriate but encouraged. Even in a country known for its luxurious spas, the Gellert thermal baths, built around natural mineral hot springs in an early-20th-century Art Noveau complex, are an amazing sight. The water in this pool, located in the main hall, is actually effervescent for an even more unique experience. thx to the writer! link: [link url="http://webecoist.com/2011/05/16/15-of-the-worlds-most-scenic-swimming-pools/"]
