šØ HONG KONGāS FIRST LICENSED STABLECOIN JUST FAILED A SECURITY REVIEW.
Just TWO DAYS after launch, blockchain security firm BlockSec flagged a critical weakness in HKDAP.
According to BlockSec, a single key could:
š„ Mint unlimited tokens
āļø Freeze funds
š„ Force-burn tokens
BlockSec called the smart contract ānot production-readyā and said its design conflicts with Hong Kongās regulatory requirements.
The issuer?
Anchorpoint a venture involving Standard Chartered, HKT and Animoca Brands.
That makes this bigger than just one smart-contract bug.
Hong Kong is positioning itself as a global digital-asset hub.
But stablecoins are supposed to be built around TRUST, SECURITY and strict controls.
If a single key can control the supply and usersā fundsā¦
That trust gets tested immediately.
The crypto industry doesnāt just need regulatory approval.
It needs code that survives scrutiny.
