Hong Kong to publish approved list of crypto assets for retail trading

Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) is preparing a list of crypto assets open to retail traders, Reuters reported on Wednesday.

The SFC’s new CEO, Julia Leung Fung-yee, said these whitelisted crypto tokens will be highly liquid ones deemed safe enough for non-professional investors. Apart from the list of approved tokens, Leung added that the SFC will liaise with the public on regulations for retail crypto trading.
