HashKey Exchange, a licensed crypto exchange based in Hong Kong, plans to list Chainlink’s LINK token.
One of the first cryptocurrency exchanges that Hong Kong regulators approved, HashKey, said that it would only list Chainlink’s virtual currency, LINK, for professional investors in accordance with local laws.
On November 7, the platform made deposits and withdrawals available for LINK users in advance of the main listing and official trading opening on November 10.
According to HashKey’s announcement, professional traders who are interested can exchange the token for USD, and deposits and withdrawals through Ethereum’s network are supported.
To mark LINK’s launch on its platform, the digital asset trading venue also revealed a reward pool. Prizes will be given to the first 250 clients who complete the quiz with all correct answers, first-come, first-served.
Recently, HashKey revealed its intentions to float Uniswap’s UNI token as the firm wants to allocate funds for regional expansion and establish itself as a leading figure in Hong Kong’s digital asset ecosystem.
Early in September 2023, the cryptocurrency exchange—which had previously debuted as the first regulated trading house for digital assets in Hong Kong—unveiled a new secondary market crypto fund.
The announcement of HashKey and OSL Digital Securities Ltd as the first recipients of Hong Kong’s cryptocurrency license regime came amid a regional shift intended to attract market participants who are leaving the United States because of the unpredictability of the country’s regulatory environment.
