As disclosed by Wen Wei Po, since the release of the "Policy Statement on Virtual Asset Development in Hong Kong" in October 2022, the Hong Kong government has frequently introduced new policies. For example, after the Hong Kong market made a historic debut of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs in April this year, Hong Kong is also not willing to lag behind in the real-world asset (RWA) investment market. The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has recently made it clear that security token offerings (STO) and RWA investments may be opened to retail investors, further expanding the virtual asset market and attracting more funds and fintech talents to Hong Kong.
