We are joining forces with Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited (“SCBHK”) and HKT to take part in Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA)’s stablecoin issuer sandbox (the “Sandbox”) that was announced in March this year. The coalition will leverage on the institutional digital asset custody capabilities of Zodia Custody, which is partly owned by Standard Chartered. The three well-established corporates share a common vision that the digital asset market can grow in a sustainable, transparent, and appropriately risk-managed way in Hong Kong and beyond. Dominic Maffei, head of digital assets & fintech, Hong Kong, Standard Chartered, said, “Standard Chartered is committed to staying at the forefront of the growing digital asset market and driving fintech innovation in Hong Kong [...] Under the guidance of the HKMA, we are proud to take part in the Sandbox with innovative industry leaders, Animoca Brands and HKT, to transform the financial sector and create positive impact for our clients.” Evan Auyang, our group president, said, “Animoca Brands is excited to partner with two of the most established and respected companies in Hong Kong to participate in the Sandbox. As a global Web3 ecosystem builder based in Hong Kong, we are excited about the mass adoption of digital assets via stablecoins issued under the HKMA’s proposed stablecoin issuer regime, and we are delighted to explore opportunities and new ways to innovate through the Sandbox.” Monita Leung, CEO of Digital Ventures, HKT, said, “HKT promotes fintech and digital economy through our consumer and merchant payment solutions. We are delighted to explore the immense potential of stablecoins in revolutionising payment systems.” For more information, read the full announcement: https://lnkd.in/gAX2vvSD

If there were no intellectual property rights, we wouldn't have a Taylor Swift😱 Traditional intellectual property rights take time and are expensive: think lawyers and negotiations. #Blockchain technology offers a much cheaper alternative to protection of intellectual property rights, protecting music creators of all types and scales, through #NFTs.
