Hong Kong’s digital asset landscape is entering a new phase. In April, the HKMA launched stablecoin issuer licences, while the SFC introduced a regulatory framework for the secondary trading of SFC-authorised tokenised products on licensed platforms, a key step toward real market liquidity. Jeffery Ding, Chief Analyst at HashKey Group, joins Tang Bo from HKUST to break down what this means 👇 dotdotnews.com/a/202605/04/AP…

🎙️ At Web3 Festival, in a fireside chat between Dr. Xiao Feng & @VitalikButerin , a key topic was the simplification of #Ethereum. Vitalik breaks “simplification” into two layers: 1️⃣ Making the user experience easier 2️⃣ Making the system itself more simple If only a few can understand the system, it isn’t truly trustless. The next step in simplification may be AI, using natural language to coordinate apps and protocols in the background, combining interoperability with usability. When users no longer need to “learn” blockchain, that’s when real adoption begins.

🎙️ For the second year in a row, our Chairman & CEO Dr. Xiao Feng and @VitalikButerin returned to the stage for another in-depth fireside chat at @festival_web3 . The conversation unpacked Ethereum’s next phase of development, from simplifying user experience and enabling AI-native interfaces, to strengthening full-stack security across hardware, wallets, and protocol layers. It also explored the growing role of formal verification, privacy technologies like ZK and FHE, and how L1 and L2 should evolve to balance scalability with decentralization and security.

In an exclusive interview with FengShows, our CEO Anna Liu shared views on Hong Kong’s #stablecoin licensing, the development path of #RWA tokenisation, enterprise strategy, and Hong Kong’s structural opportunities in the global on-chain finance landscape. 💡 Key takeaways: - Hong Kong’s first stablecoin licences were granted to traditional banks and affiliated institutions as a prudent starting point, with systemic security and market confidence as key priorities. - RWA tokenisation is developing in 3 stages: currency tokenisation, financial asset tokenisation, and physical asset tokenisation. At present, financial assets offer the clearest and most practical path to adoption. - Enterprises should start from the asset, assess suitability and value, embed compliance early, and take a long-term approach. - Hong Kong’s RWA opportunity is structural, backed by licensed infrastructure, a common law system, and a deep financial ecosystem. H2 2026 could be a key growth window. Watch from 11’07”👇 share.fengshows.cn/video.html?id=…

As RWA moves from proof of concept to real execution and system building. Our CEO, Anna Liu, delivered a keynote at #Web3Festival 2026, addressing the ultimate questions shaping the next phase of RWA. 💡 Key takeaways from her session: 1️⃣ Regulation is shifting from wait-and-see to rulemaking Regulatory frameworks globally are rapidly taking shape and evolving. Hong Kong’s pilot allowing secondary trading of tokenised SFC-authorised investment products on licensed platforms is a clear advancement. The question is no longer if regulation will arrive, but how to build within it. 2️⃣ Going on-chain is a means, not the end The real challenges lie in asset credibility, legal enforceability, and liquidity. Tokenisation must answer a fundamental question: what new value does going on-chain actually create? 3️⃣ RWA is not a product, it is a system It is a system where legal ownership, on-chain representation, and market infrastructure must work together. The next phase of the market will be defined by those who can make this system function end-to-end. HashKey has built a one-stop RWA solution covering the full lifecycle — from compliant structuring and on-chain issuance to distribution, liquidity, and ongoing disclosure. These capabilities have been validated in real market deployments, and will scale beyond Hong Kong to serve APAC and global institutions, forming a key infrastructure connecting markets.

🎙️ At #Web3Festival main stage, Dr. Xiao Feng, Chairman & CEO of HashKey Group, delivered a keynote on When Token Meets Token: A First-Principles Perspective on the Digitalization of Information and Value. From AI tokens (information) to blockchain tokens (value), both are being atomized and made programmable. The breakthrough comes with privacy computing, enabling data to be used without exposure. This shifts the model from data sharing to compute access, and from trust-based systems to verification-based systems. What emerges is a new economic structure: data owners become Token factories, AI drives production, blockchain ensures execution, and programmable digital money enables real-time transactions. 🤖 Not people trading with people, but agents computing and transacting, secured by code instead of trust.
