China may be rethinking its crypto stance as legal authorities explore new approaches to related cases.
Hong Kong’s crypto-friendly policies could hint at broader interest from mainland China’s regulators.
For years, the Chinese government has been tough on Bitcoin and other crypto assets. In 2021, the government imposed a blanket ban, seemingly shutting down all forms of cryptocurrency trading and mining on the mainland. But now, there’s a whiff of change—and it’s coming from Hong Kong.
Recently, the CEO of a Hong Kong ETF issuer disclosed that mainland Chinese regulators seem to be considering a review of their policies regarding Bitcoin and digital assets. Behind those statements are some interesting moves that could be read as early steps toward bigger changes.
