On June 26, 2025, the Hong Kong SAR Government unveiled its Digital Asset Development Policy Declaration 2.0, reaffirming its commitment to becoming a world-class digital asset center—a trusted market where innovation thrives within controlled risks, integrated with the real economy and financial markets.

Key elements of the policy follow the LEAP framework:

• Legal streamlining

• Expansion of tokenized products

• Acceleration of real-world applications

• Partnership building for talent & collaboration

Highlights include:

• Public consultation on licensing frameworks for digital asset trading and custody, with the SFC and HKMA clearly demarcated as regulators;

• Normalizing tokenized bond issuance, enabling secondary market liquidity and investor participation, backed by tax relief policies;

• Exploring stablecoins as compliant payment tools;

• Launching pilot funding and incubation through Cyberport and other initiatives.

By reinforcing both regulation and innovation, Hong Kong positions itself not just as a Web3 technology hub, but as a pioneer in regulatory architecture—making it a premier location for digital asset evolution in Asia.
