最新报道:According to a September 8th report from the Hong Kong Economic Journal, ICBC's Hong Kong subsidiary, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Asia), has expressed its intention to apply for a stablecoin license with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), joining Bank of China (Hong Kong) as the second major Chinese bank to do so. HSBC has also expressed its intention to apply for a stablecoin license with the HKMA, though it remains unclear whether it will formally submit its application by the end of this month. The HKMA has repeatedly stated that it will only issue a few stablecoin licenses in the initial phase, but as of the end of last month, 77 institutions had expressed interest in applying.
