As it intensifies its regional approach, Hong Kong cryptocurrency exchange HashKey Exchange is adding Uniswap (UNI) to its roster of supported assets.
HashKey Exchange announced in a press release on November 6 that it has started taking UNI deposits. Trading is scheduled to begin on November 9, 2023 (UTC+8) at 16:00.
The business also stated that only expert investors can trade UNI against the US dollar. The availability of UNI for non-professional traders has yet to be made clear by the trading platform.
Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Avalanche (AVAX), Tether (USDT), and USD Coin (USDC) are supported by HashKey Exchange as of the time of publication.
According to CoinGecko, UNI is trading up 4% in response to the announcement and is getting close to $5. HashKey Group released its first licensed mobile trading app for iOS and Android smartphones a few days before the announcement.
In addition to the mobile app, HashKey plans to provide HashKey EcoPoints (HSK), an ERC-20 token. The token, which would serve as a “bond to incentivize ecosystem contributors,” will grant early access to “future new token subscriptions,” fee savings, and “specific rights” for asset issuance.
After launching its services in late August 2023, HashKey became the first cryptocurrency platform in Hong Kong to receive a license. Representatives from the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), significant financial institutions, insurance providers, and the Big Four auditing firms worked together to organize the launch.
