According to a report by the Hong Kong Economic Journal, Jeremy Allaire, co-founder and CEO of stablecoin issuer Circle, stated that Hong Kong is an important market for USDC. The company intends to hire more employees and establish operations in Hong Kong. They are currently waiting for the new stablecoin regulations in Hong Kong to understand the rules before considering applying for a license. Additionally, Chen Qinqi, Vice President of Circle Asia Pacific, mentioned that Hong Kong has significant advantages in developing stablecoins, including the ability to achieve same-day US dollar settlements. It is also the largest capital market in the Asia Pacific region, and there is a belief that a Hong Kong version of the stablecoin will have considerable market demand.
