Hong Kong Digital Asset New Policy Forum: Promoting RWA Implementation and Web3 Innovation

On July 3, 2025, an important forum focusing on Hong Kong's new digital asset policies was held in Causeway Bay. This event attracted numerous participants from the political, financial, and technology sectors to explore the potential opportunities for the integration of TradFi and Decentralized Finance, and to focus on the digitization of real-world assets.

The event revolves around Hong Kong's latest digital asset policy framework, exploring how it paves the way for financial innovation while balancing compliance and technological development, enhancing Hong Kong's position as a global asset tokenization center. National Committee member and Chairman of the Hong Kong Legislative Council's Web3 and Virtual Asset Development Group, Wu Jiezhuang, stated in his speech that the SAR government is accelerating the promotion of a new digital asset policy declaration, actively attracting international funds and innovative platforms by improving regulatory and fintech infrastructure. He emphasized that "compliance as the foundation, innovation as the driving force" will be the core principle for Hong Kong's future development in Web3.

During a roundtable forum, participants discussed the role and limitations of stablecoins in promoting RWA liquidity, noting that the technical integration and regulatory uncertainty faced by traditional institutions remain major challenges. Participants unanimously agreed that the price stability of stablecoins could serve as a basis for cross-market trading of RWA, but to attract more participation from traditional finance, it is necessary to unify technical standards and clarify regulatory pathways.

During the forum, the organizers announced the official launch of the "RWA Bridge Program," which focuses on building a bridge between TradFi and Web3, assisting financial institutions in entering the world of digital assets. The program will provide funding, technical tools, and compliance guidance to startups, facilitate asset tokenization, and promote the practical application of RWA categories such as private credit, US treasury bonds, and alternative assets.

A co-founder and Chief Business Officer of a blockchain infrastructure company stated that the company will continue to invest in building the foundational connections between traditional assets and blockchain networks. The RWA asset management system they developed has already served multiple international institutions and has engaged in discussions with the U.S. SEC's Crypto Task Force to promote the compliant development of digital assets and RWA.

The company also plans to launch an institutional-grade RWA trading platform in Hong Kong, with its infrastructure already being used in collaboration with several well-known financial institutions. The company will participate in the upcoming "digital asset regulatory sandbox" pilot program, aiming to assist the local ecosystem in connecting with international markets and further consolidating Hong Kong's leading position in the RWA field.

The Hong Kong event attracted over 300 industry representatives, facilitating multiple potential cooperation intentions on-site. With the comprehensive promotion of Hong Kong's new digital asset policy, the industry expressed that it will join hands with more industry partners to accelerate the integration of TradFi and the blockchain ecosystem, helping Hong Kong seize the high ground in the global Web3 competition.
