Hong Kong Approves First Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs
In a historic move, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has approved the region’s first spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, opening the floodgates for institutional and retail investors in Asia.
🌍 This approval positions Hong Kong as a leading crypto financial hub in the Asia-Pacific region, directly competing with Singapore and Dubai.
📈 The announcement triggered immediate market excitement, with Bitcoin gaining 5% and Ethereum 7% within hours.
💼 Several major asset managers, including Harvest Global Investments and ChinaAMC, will be among the first to list these ETFs on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange later this month.
💡 Analysts expect billions in capital inflows from mainland China investors via southbound trading channels.
