Asian digital asset company's first Hong Kong IPO: HashKey officially listed on HKEX

【BlockBeats】December 17th, this date is a bit special for Hong Kong’s digital asset industry. HashKey Holdings Limited officially listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, becoming the first publicly listed digital asset company in Asia in Hong Kong. Honestly, this event is quite significant—it marks a new stage of industry recognition in compliance and institutional acceptance.

Chairman and CEO Xiao Feng said at the listing site, “Listing on HKEX is a new starting point.” He emphasized that HashKey has been rooted in Hong Kong and坚持走合规道路. The upcoming plans include strengthening infrastructure capabilities, especially in key areas such as security, custody, on-chain execution, and on-chain compliance, with the goal of building a globally leading digital asset infrastructure service platform.

This IPO received strong support from the market. Just cornerstone investors included nine heavyweight institutions such as UBS AM Singapore, Fidelity, and Dinghui Investment. This indicates that traditional financial circles are indeed interested in this track.

HashKey was established in 2018 and has consistently adhered to the strategy of “compliance as the foundation, technology as the core.” Its business covers three major sectors: transaction facilitation, on-chain services, and asset management, providing retail and institutional clients with access to the digital asset market. As Hong Kong advances the tokenization of physical assets, improves the tokenization system, and builds digital financial infrastructure, platforms like HashKey have more opportunities. The future focus is on continuously improving infrastructure within a compliance framework to help Hong Kong play a more important role in the global digital asset landscape.
