币界网报道:On June 24, Guotai Junan International (1788.HK) was officially approved by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission to upgrade its existing securities trading license to provide virtual asset trading services and related opinions. After the upgrade, customers can directly trade cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum and stablecoins such as Tether on its platform. Guotai Junan International has thus become the first Chinese brokerage firm in Hong Kong to provide a full range of virtual asset-related trading services, covering virtual asset trading, consulting and related product issuance and distribution. In recent years, the company has continued to expand its virtual asset business, including launching virtual asset ETF structured products, conducting trading platform agency business and digital bond issuance, etc., actively helping Hong Kong build an international virtual asset center.
