Bitcoin Pieņemšana: Honkonga ir Āzijas augošais kriptogrāfijas centrs
The city of Hong Kong is serious about crypto. After three years of struggles with COVID-19, the city is vibrant and flourishing again as business executives and tourists of all kinds pour back into Asia's financial center. New guidelines from the Securities and Futures Commission are paving the way.
Since Hong Kong FinTech Week last year regulators have been building a comprehensive license regime for digital assets. Regulated under the principle of “same business, same risks, same rules,” digital assets are now being approached with similar rules to traditional financial ones. This has resulted in breakthrough moments for the industry this year such as when Hong Kong's licensed exchange HashKey launched a digital asset exchange App, and various traditional financial institutions received relevant licenses allowing them to offer digital asset retail trading.
This was made possible by the Hong Kong government's comprehensive strategy to make the city a desirable Web3 hub. It started with a goal to improve foreign investment and talent recruitment.
The Hong Kong government sees the digital assets industry as a driving force behind its immigration and foreign investment back into the city. Other steps the Hong Kong government has taken in this area include: announcing a series of policies focused on attracting overseas family offices with tax incentives and releasing a plan that allows Bitcoin to be purchased through compliant exchanges which is currently under consideration by Hong Kong's Investment Immigration Program.
Piesaistot ārvalstu investīcijas un labākos talantus, pilsētu vadītāji cer atgūt uzņēmumu uzticību un daudzveidīgāku digitālo ekonomiku. Turklāt atjauninātā imigrācijas talantu shēma ir izstrādāta, lai piesaistītu augsti pelnošus un ārvalstu absolventus no labākajām universitātēm. Līdz šim darba sekretārs atklāja, ka birojs ir saņēmis vairāk pieteikumu, nekā paredzēts. Visi šie centieni radīs spēcīgāku pamatu tam, lai pilsētai būtu daudzveidīgs talantu kopums digitālajā ekonomikā.
Digitālo aktīvu licencēšana ir pavērusi iespējas izveidot spēcīgus Honkongas kriptogrāfijas uzņēmumus. Uzņēmums Metalpha nesen ieguva 4. tipa licences (konsultācijas par vērtspapīriem) palielinājumu. Tas ļaus mums paplašināt centienus konsultāciju un emisiju analīzē, kā arī publicēt ziņojumus kvalificētiem investoriem par digitālajiem aktīviem. Šis mums ir pagrieziena punkts, un tas vēl vairāk parāda SFC uzticību mūsu biznesa pieejai.
In fact, since the start of this year, we have observed strong demand from family offices and public companies asking how to invest in Bitcoin in a compliant way. Smart investors who see through the noise and beyond the negative headlines are being rewarded with clear opportunities to grow and benefit from crypto and Web3. I believe more companies will apply for licenses to attract investment, boost their business credibility, and pursue new opportunities as a result.
A recent story reported by the Financial Times shows that Hong Kong is projected to overtake Switzerland as the world’s leading cross-border wealth management as Asia spearheads the growth. This massive global wealth shift presents a great opportunity for investors eyeing digital assets. As regulations become clearer for the digital assets industry in the coming years, Hong Kong will stand out as a city that offers a balanced approach to innovation and risk assessment.
Gaidot jauno gadu, esmu pārliecināts, ka Honkongai arī turpmāk būs galvenā loma Web3 centrmezgla izveidē un turpmāk tiešā konkurencē ar Singapūru, kurai bija agrīna kriptovalūtu virzītāja priekšrocība. Un tā ir laba lieta. Investoriem vajadzētu būt vairāk iespēju izvēlēties labākos kriptovalūtu projektus vai uzņēmumus, ar kuriem strādāt. Kas attiecas uz klientiem, tas vairos pārliecību, tiklīdz viņi zinās, ka viņu pakalpojumu sniedzējs ir drošs un atbilst prasībām regulatoru acīs.
