拥有加密新闻网站Coindesk的Bullish Group成为香港的第10次许可交易所。批准是因为香港正在扩大投资者交易虚拟资产的途径。

Crypto news site CoinDesk’s parent company, Bullish Group, has become the 10th licensed exchange in Hong Kong.

加密新闻网站Coindesk的母公司Bullish Group已成为香港的第10次许可交易所。

The approval comes as the city is expanding the avenues for investors to trade virtual assets, with its financial regulator announcing new licensing rules for over-the-counter (OTC) crypto trading and custody services.

批准是随着纽约市正在扩大投资者交易虚拟资产的途径，其金融监管机构宣布了针对非处方（OTC）加密货币交易和监护权服务的新许可规则。

The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) said Wednesday that the changes are aimed at ensuring market efficiency and enhancing investor protection.

美国证券和期货委员会（SFC）周三表示，这些变化旨在确保市场效率并提高投资者的保护。

The regulator is also considering derivative trading and margin financing options for virtual assets. The measures were unveiled by SFC CEO Julia Leung at the Consensus Hong Kong 2025 conference, which saw industry leaders discussing the city's role in the crypto sector.

监管机构还考虑了虚拟资产的衍生交易和保证金融资方案。 SFC首席执行官朱莉娅·李（Julia Leung）在香港2025会议上揭示了这些措施，该会议使行业领导人讨论了该市在加密货币领域的作用。

Hong Kong has been positioning itself as a digital asset trading hub since 2022, a move that followed China’s sweeping ban on cryptocurrency transactions in the mainland. The city has since launched Asia’s first spot crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and granted nine virtual asset trading platform (VATP) licenses, according to Financial Secretary Paul Chan.

自2022年以来，香港一直将自己定位为数字资产交易中心，此举是在中国对大陆加密货币交易的禁令之后的此举。据财务部长保罗·陈（Paul Chan）称，该市已启动了亚洲的第一批加密货币交易基金（ETF），并授予了9个虚拟资产交易平台（VATP）许可证。

The government is also advancing stablecoin regulations, with legislation already introduced to support further industry progress. “These initiatives reflect our effort to build a thriving digital asset ecosystem,” Chan said.

政府还正在推进Stablecoin法规，并已经制定了立法来支持进一步的行业进步。 Chan说：“这些举措反映了我们建立蓬勃发展的数字资产生态系统的努力。”

Hong Kong’s crypto push is being closely watched, with some viewing it as a testbed for Beijing’s approach to virtual assets.

仔细观察了香港的加密推动力，其中一些将其视为北京的虚拟资产方法的测试床。

IDA CEO Lawrence Chu has described the city’s role as a sandbox for China, offering a controlled environment for digital asset experimentation while acting as a bridge for broader market activity.

艾达（Ida）首席执行官劳伦斯·楚（Lawrence Chu）将纽约市的角色描述为中国的沙箱，为数字资产实验提供了受控环境，同时充当了更广泛的市场活动的桥梁。

Hong Kong’s government is also stepping up efforts to attract crypto investors, announcing plans to expand existing tax breaks for privately offered funds and family offices to include crypto investments.

香港政府还正在加大努力吸引加密货币投资者，宣布计划扩大现有的税收减免，以供私人提供资金和家庭办事处，以包括加密货币投资。

The SFC is currently assessing several more applications and expects a wave of new licensed exchanges in the coming months.

SFC目前正在评估更多的应用程序，并期望在未来几个月内进行新的许可交易所。

A total of 16 companies are awaiting decisions on their VATP applications, with 11 already operating as “deemed to be licensed,” despite the SFC advising caution against trading with them.

尽管SFC谨慎不要与他们进行交易，共有16家公司正在等待其VATP申请的决定，其中11家已经被视为“被许可”。

The SFC has completed its first round of on-site reviews of these crypto firms. SFC CEO Julia Leung confirmed that all VATPs adhering to the commission’s licensing model can expect their applications to be approved.

SFC已完成对这些加密公司的第一轮现场评论。 SFC首席执行官Julia Leung确认，遵守委员会许可模型的所有VATP都可以期望其申请得到批准。
