Since the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission launched the virtual asset trading platform licensing system in June 2023, the development of the crypto industry has ushered in new opportunities. The new policy stipulates that platforms must operate in compliance and be subject to strict supervision to enhance market security and transparency; at the same time, innovative products such as ETFs and virtual asset funds are gradually open to ordinary investors, lowering the investment threshold and attracting a large amount of institutional funds. Hong Kongs friendly policies towards the crypto industry have laid the foundation for its status as a crypto financial hub, promoted cooperation between traditional financial institutions and crypto asset management institutions, and injected new growth momentum into the industry.
To commemorate the second anniversary of the implementation of the new crypto policy in Hong Kong, Daniel, head of asset management at Matrixport, was invited to participate in the X Space event co-organized by MetaEra and Web3 labs at 8:30 pm on October 31, with the theme of Web3 Shines in Hong Kong - Two Years of Exploration and Development of the New Policy in Hong Kong. During the AMA live broadcast, Daniel expressed his views on the impact of the implementation of the new crypto policy in Hong Kong, new cooperation opportunities under the Web3.0 compliance wave, and Matrixports development plan for the next three to five years.
The implementation of Hong Kongs new encryption policy is beneficial to the development of the industry
Hong Kong has gradually shifted its regulatory environment to support the Web3.0 industry. In recent years, the United States has launched innovative products such as crypto ETFs, which have injected confidence into traditional financial institutions, and more institutions have gradually accepted crypto assets. Product innovation and compliance channel construction in Hong Kongs crypto market have effectively lowered the entry threshold for ordinary investors and promoted cooperation between traditional financial and crypto asset management institutions. Driven by products such as ETFs and compliant funds, traditional capital has gained more opportunities to enter the crypto market, thereby achieving higher returns and diversification of investment portfolios.
Web3.0 global compliance enhances the potential for cooperation between traditional finance and crypto finance
Due to differences in regulatory policies, different countries are regulating the crypto market according to their own conditions. However, due to the decentralized nature of Web3.0, it has stronger liquidity globally, especially in the field of decentralized exchanges and stablecoins, where transactions and liquidity naturally cross national borders. Although the current regulatory focus of various countries is on investor protection, in the long run, the global Web3.0 market will tend to develop in a coordinated manner, and the potential for cooperation between traditional finance and crypto financial institutions will continue to increase. The establishment of compliance channels is accelerating the healthy development of the crypto market.
Matrixport will deepen product innovation and diversity to promote the construction of Hong Kongs crypto hub
Matrixport plans to introduce cutting-edge technology and high-end talents to develop diversified financial products under the premise of compliance to meet the ever-changing market needs. In addition, Matrixport will work closely with local financial institutions and regulators to ensure that all services meet the latest compliance standards and further enhance the transparency and security of the market. Through these efforts, Matrixport hopes to provide investors with more choices and higher yield opportunities, while promoting Hong Kongs leading position in the global crypto market.
Against the backdrop of the booming global digital economy, Hong Kong, as a financial center in the Asia-Pacific region, is welcoming unprecedented development opportunities with its gradually improved cryptocurrency regulatory system and friendly policy environment. With the rapid rise of Web3.0, the potential for cooperation between traditional finance and crypto finance continues to increase, opening up new directions for innovation and investment. In the future, Hong Kong is expected to become a global crypto finance hub and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the industry.
