Hong Kong aims to become a crypto paradise by officially approving licensed cryptocurrency platforms and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to offer staking services. The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), the country’s financial regulator, has taken a significant step toward solidifying Hong Kong’s position as a global cryptocurrency hub. In a recent announcement, the SFC emphasized the importance of staking demands and the contribution of these activities to Blockchain security. The new regulations are seen as a strategic move to enhance Hong Kong’s competitiveness in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape.

Strict Approval Process for Licensed Crypto Platforms

Under the new framework released by the SFC, cryptocurrency trading platforms wanting to offer staking services (VATPs) must obtain written approval. This requirement also applies to ETFs, which must request regulatory consent before participating in staking activities. The commission mandates that companies providing these services implement stringent security measures, ensure the protection of user assets, and transparently communicate risks involved.

This new regulation is expected not only to protect investors but also to boost confidence in the sector. Given the potential severe consequences of poor service in complex areas like staking, the aim is for these regulations to be reassuring rather than discouraging for both individual and institutional investors. Additionally, companies are encouraged to establish a more professional service infrastructure.

Competition Intensifies as Hong Kong Expands Its Roadmap

The latest regulations announced by the SFC are part of a broader 12-point cryptocurrency strategy roadmap revealed in February. This plan encompasses a wide range of regulations, including coin listings, derivatives trading, collateralized lending, and staking. Since launching its licensing system in June 2023, Hong Kong has opened its doors to individual investors and laid the groundwork for a more systematic cryptocurrency structure.

The increasing global competition for cryptocurrencies is pushing Hong Kong to act swiftly. With the potential resurgence of pro-crypto policies in Washington due to Donald Trump’s return to politics, Hong Kong opts to build its own robust system rather than merely riding the waves of external changes.

SFC CEO Julia Leung stated, “Diversifying services is essential for the healthy development of the cryptocurrency ecosystem,” highlighting the importance of a secure and regulation-focused framework. According to Leung, as services expand, investor security must always remain a top priority.
