HONG KONG’S WEB3 POLICIES & GROWTH
Hong Kong has shown strong support for Web3 in recent years. Since releasing its Policy Statement on Virtual Asset Development in October 2022, the government has aimed to position Hong Kong as a global crypto hub.
In June 2023, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) introduced a licensing system for virtual asset trading platforms, enabling compliant exchanges like HashKey Exchange to operate legally. This “regulation + innovation” approach balances investor protection with industry growth.
HashKey Exchange ranked highly in Forbes’ 2025 list of Most Trusted Crypto Exchanges, showcasing Hong Kong’s success in regulated markets. Events like the Web3 Festival further strengthen Hong Kong’s image as a Web3 hub.
HONG KONG’S WEB3 ADVANTAGES
Hong Kong stands out in the Web3 sector due to its unique strengths. As a global financial center, it offers a mature legal system, low corporate taxes (max 16.5%), and efficient financial infrastructure—ideal for crypto businesses.
Its location bridges mainland China and global markets, facilitating capital and information flow.
By 2025, one in four Hong Kong adults plans to own crypto, driving demand for regulated platforms.
Looking ahead, Hong Kong can further solidify its global Web3 position by refining policies and ecosystem development. The success of the 2025 Web3 Festival marks a key step in this direction.
