Forum in Hong Kong Discusses the Integration of TradFi and Blockchain

On July 3, 2025, a forum focusing on Hong Kong's new policies was held in Causeway Bay. This event attracted many individuals from the political, financial, and technology sectors to discuss the potential opportunities for the integration of TradFi and decentralized finance, as well as to pay attention to the digitalization of real-world assets.

The event discussed the latest digital asset policy framework implemented in Hong Kong, 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. Wu Jiezhuang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the Hong Kong Legislative Council's Web3 and Virtual Assets Development Subcommittee, stated in his speech that the SAR government is accelerating the promotion of relevant policies, actively attracting international capital and innovative platforms through improved regulation and fintech infrastructure. He emphasized that "compliance is fundamental, and innovation is the driving force" will be the core policy for Hong Kong's future development in Web3.

At a roundtable forum, representatives from several well-known institutions discussed the role and limitations of stablecoins in promoting liquidity of real-world assets, and pointed out that the technological integration and regulatory uncertainty faced by traditional institutions remain major challenges. The participants unanimously agreed that the price stability of stablecoins could serve as a foundation for cross-market trading of real-world assets, but to attract more participation from TradFi, unified technical standards and clear regulatory pathways are needed.

During the forum, the participants 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 on-chain assets. This program will provide funding, technical tools, and compliance guidance to startup projects, facilitate asset tokenization, and promote the practical application of real-world asset classes such as private credit, U.S. Treasuries, and alternative assets.

A co-founder 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 real-world asset management system it developed has 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 real-world assets.

The company also plans to launch an institutional-grade real-world asset trading platform in Hong Kong, with its infrastructure already in collaboration with several well-known financial institutions. The company will participate in the upcoming "Digital Asset Regulatory Sandbox" pilot program, which will assist the local ecosystem in connecting with international standards and further consolidate Hong Kong's leading position in the real-world asset sector.

This event attracted over 300 industry representatives, facilitating multiple potential cooperation intentions on site. With the comprehensive promotion of the new policies in Hong Kong, the industry expressed its intention to join hands with more industrial partners to accelerate the integration of TradFi and Blockchain ecology, helping Hong Kong seize the high ground in the global Web3 competition.
