Key Points:
Starting from 8:00 on August 10, 2023, traders will have access to BTC/USDT and ETH/USDT pairs.
Notably, HashKey Exchange holds the distinction of being the pioneer recipient of a Hong Kong license under the open crypto policy, implemented on June 1, 2023. This coveted license has since been granted to OSL as well, marking the second such achievement in the region.
The competitive landscape has been energized by Hong Kong’s decision to permit individual investors to engage in cryptocurrency trading. Prominent exchanges like OKX, Huobi, and BitMEX have vied for licenses, but HashKey has emerged as a standout contender. It swiftly obtained class 1 and class 7 licenses, enabling the provision of trading services to individual investors. The company is inviting users to register and partake in the HSK token airdrop.
HashKey’s rapid license acquisition – a mere two months following policy implementation – underscores the efficiency of the local government’s processes.
Supporting HashKey Exchange’s operations is Standard Chartered Bank, which facilitates fiat deposits and withdrawals for users. This partnership follows HSBC’s pioneering initiative in enabling customers to trade Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
While HashKey Exchange’s advancement into the new trading pairs domain opens opportunities, it also acknowledges the potential challenges posed by decentralized and open-source systems. The risk of technological non-collaboration affecting network performance and the possibility of BTC and ETH being superseded by more efficient competitors are among the concerns being transparently communicated.
