Odaily reports that Julia Leung, CEO of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), stated at Consensus Hong Kong 2025 that the US SEC's progress in crypto regulation is rapid, and Hong Kong is also actively considering its position in the crypto wave. Crypto regulations in other regions cannot be adapted to Hong Kong. Starting in 2023, Hong Kong will establish a licensing regime to regulate the development of trading platforms in the city, and financial service providers such as banks and brokers will also adopt a licensing system. The custody of crypto assets, OTC, and the issuance of crypto financial products are all subject to regulation. This afternoon, the SFC will release a regulatory roadmap focusing on investor protection, covering different participants in the ecosystem, and providing consistency, which will make compliance clearer for businesses.

Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission CEO: Crypto Regulatory Roadmap to be released today, focusing on protecting investors and covering different participants

Odaily Odaily reports that Leaf Chi-hang, Executive Director of the Intermediaries Division of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, expects that the virtual asset development roadmap will be announced within this month. The roadmap will not only outline the development principles, but also mention the areas that the SFC hopes to research with the market in the short term, as well as the areas that platform participants hope to optimize. The SFC held the first virtual asset advisory group meeting with representatives of licensed virtual asset trading platforms last week. As the chairman of the group, Leaf Chi-hang said that the future development direction of the market was discussed at the meeting. He pointed out that the market has actively applied for licenses in the first stage, but he believes that the operating model is more important, so that their business can develop sustainably. Currently, there are 9 licensed virtual asset trading platforms and applicants respectively. When asked whether the platforms still on the applicant list are expected to be licensed, Leaf Chi-hang said that the current progress is very good, and the market is increasingly clear about the SFC's licensing standards. He emphasized that there will be new licenses issued, but whether all of them will obtain licenses depends on whether they meet the requirements. In addition, when attending the discussion session of the Asia Securities Industry & Financial Markets Association annual conference, Leaf Chi-hang said that the focus of the soon-to-be-announced virtual asset roadmap is not on the content itself, but on the SFC's courage to show the principles to the market and the attitude for the market to consider. He also does not believe that there is a conflict between market development and regulation, and believes that as a regulator, one needs to understand the market in order to do better regulation.

From the collapse of the FTX empire within 72 hours in November 2022, to the founder SBF being sentenced to a heavy prison term, and then to the creditors starting to receive actual compensation, the entire event is like a crypto version of "The Wolf of Wall Street" filled with human greed, technical vulnerabilities, and regulatory gaps. At the same time, an in-depth interview with a former senior executive of FTX revealed the unknown logic behind this collapse: when...
