  Hong Kong’s new Stablecoin license framework, effective August 1, puts HKMA in charge of approving stablecoin issuers. Companies offering HKD or USD-backed stablecoins must comply with strict rules: full reserves, segregated funds, fast redemptions, and audits. License approvals start in 2026, with a limited number granted initially. Deceptive marketing carries penalties. Big players like JD.com are interested, but small businesses may struggle due to compliance costs. The move aims to position Hong Kong as a leading digital asset hub.
