About This Trend
ワンタイムパスワード is a unique security code that is used for temporary verification.
According to a YouTube video by a Japanese media outlet, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has announced that ワンタイムパスワード will be phased out due to security concerns. This comes after several incidents of account hacking and data breaches in Japan. As a result, services such as マイページ and 楽天カード are no longer using ワンタイムパスワード for verification. Meanwhile, in the gaming community, Fortnite is hosting a series of ワンタイムイベント (One-Time Events) with special rules and rewards. The events have been popular among players, with many watching live streams and participating in the activities.
