According to PANews, a report by 21st Century Business Herald analyzes Hong Kong's strategic approach to stablecoins, highlighting the concept of 'designated stablecoins' and its regulatory implications. The 'designated stablecoins' are pegged to one or more official currencies or units of account specified by the Monetary Authority to maintain stable value. The regulatory focus is on two activities: issuing designated stablecoins within Hong Kong and those issued outside but claiming to be pegged to the Hong Kong dollar. This framework ensures that stablecoins linked to the Hong Kong dollar are regulated while allowing room for other stablecoins.
