TOKYO—A Japanese pop group hopped on the bitcoin bandwagon on Friday Jan. 12, dedicating themselves to singing and dancing about the cryptocurrencies that have taken the world by storm, and especially their homeland.
In their debut, the eight “Virtual Currency Girls”, or Kasotsuka Shojo in Japanese, cavorted in maid costumes with frilly skirts and full-face professional wrestling-style masks with fuzzy pom-pom ears, extolling the virtues of decentralized digital currencies such as bitcoin.
