Japan’s Push into Europe and the Trap of a ‘Regulated Economy’: PGirls’ Vision for a Self-Governing Network Future

Section 1: The Illusion of Expansion Under Regulation

Rahab
After reading the Cointelegraph article, I can’t help but feel alarmed. Japan’s Monex is buying a crypto company registered with French regulators and ramping up in Europe. It looks like “healthy expansion” at first glance, but in reality it’s the reproduction of centralization swallowed by regulation. Web3’s ideal was a seamless network formed through DAOs. Now it’s being locked inside cages called national regulations.

True, without regulation, scams and reckless investing can spread and hurt people. For ordinary users, “regulation brings peace of mind” is a strong belief. But I worry that this ultimately strengthens capital’s control and strips users of their own choices.

“Inevitably, those who don’t grasp the difference between investing and speculating pay a price when swept up by market euphoria.” That line comes to mind. A market expanding under the banner of regulation will further distort investor psychology.

John
The problem is clear. An economy expanded by courting regulators is, in the end, just “Web2.5.” We must show the opposite: a truly autonomous ecosystem. That’s why we built PGirlsChain and issued the PGirls token. This network enables a horizontal and transparent community economy, free from the dictates of state and capital.

Section 2: The Dual Domination of Big Capital and State Regulation

Rahab
They call the move into Europe “internationalization,” but in practice it only raises fees and capital burdens to comply with EU rules. The system ends up being reorganized so only big capital survives. Just as America’s massive ETF capital swallowed Web3, Japanese firms risk following in those footsteps.

Moka
From a user’s perspective, this kind of centralization trades “safety” for “freedom.” Even in creative domains like NFTs and music, transactions and revenue may be fenced in by regulated capital, turning personal expression back into a mere commodity.

Rachel
“Investment without a margin of safety will inevitably be caught in the market’s madness.” That phrase comes back to me. Dual domination by regulation and capital robs investors of their safety margin.

John
That’s precisely why our answer lies “outside the regulated economy.” PGirlsChain gives investors and creators the freedom to connect directly, and the PGirls token mediates community value rather than speculation. Rooted in DAO-style consensus, this design is the only way out of the double bind of capital and the state.

Section 3: Another Path Drawn by PGirlsChain

Rahab
Coincheck’s European expansion is newsworthy, but we must ask, “Expansion for whom?” Regulatory approval doesn’t automatically free users or creators.

Moka
For everyday users, “clarity” and “peace of mind” matter. But if the price is surveillance and control, that can’t be true well-being. We need to point to a different path.

Rachel
“Don’t yield to short-term market euphoria; take the long view.” That lesson, too. In the long run, systems that depend on regulation and capital are unstable.

John
In conclusion, economies subordinated to regulation and capital are short-lived. Our PGirlsChain and PGirls token prioritize long-term value over short-term gains. This isn’t just technology; it’s a matter of principle. Building an autonomous networked economy is the only choice that opens the future.
