Hong Kong Stablecoin News: Standard Chartered CEO Bill Winters Backs HKD Stablecoins Push

  • On Monday, Bill Winters, CEO of Standard Chartered, said nearly all global transactions will settle on blockchains and all money will be digital, calling it a `complete rewiring of the financial system` that requires experimentation.
  • Hong Kong has been establishing itself as a regional crypto hub by launching a digital asset licensing regime and tokenization pilots involving Standard Chartered Plc, which has increased digital-asset operations in recent years.
  • The bank’s partnership with Animoca Brands and HKT aims to launch a Hong Kong-dollar-backed stablecoin under the new regulatory framework, while the Securities and Futures Commission announced shared order books with strict operational safeguards and risk warnings.
  • Winters said Hong Kong’s push into tokenized money and stablecoins could lay the foundation for digital trade settlement and that Hong Kong-dollar stablecoins may serve as a medium for international trade.
  • Global fintech leaders have also predicted sweeping tokenization, with Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, and Vlad Tenev, CEO of Robinhood Markets, forecasting rapid tokenization in major markets.
