币界网报道：According to Bloomberg, the international business unit of Ant Group Co., backed by Jack Ma, is planning to apply for stablecoin licenses in Singapore and Hong Kong. People familiar with the matter said that Ant International, headquartered in Singapore, will apply for a stablecoin issuer license in Hong Kong as soon as Hong Kong's Stablecoins Ordinance takes effect in August. In addition to Singapore, the company also plans to seek a license in Luxembourg. People familiar with the matter said the move is aimed at strengthening the company's blockchain business to support its cross-border payment and fund management services. They said that Ant Financial processed more than $1 trillion in global transactions last year, one-third of which was processed by its blockchain-based Whale platform.
