Hong Kong warns retail investors on digital asset treasury risks
The post Hong Kong warns retail investors on digital asset treasury risks appeared com. Hong Kong regulators have blocked at least five public companies from pivoting to digital asset treasury models, as they weigh whether formal guardrails are needed to curb valuation bubbles and protect retail investors. Summary Hong Kong’s securities regulator has blocked at least five listed companies from shifting to digital asset treasury models amid concerns over inflated valuations. The SFC is studying whether new guidelines are needed for listed companies holding crypto. Local media reports citing Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission chairman, Kelvin Wong Tin-yau, claim the agency is monitoring how listed firms manage digital asset treasuries, as they are concerned about inflated share prices that may not reflect underlying crypto holdings. “The SFC is concerned about whether DAT companies’ share prices are traded at a substantial premium above the cost of their DAT holdings,” Wong said, as he highlighted examples from the United States where his agency observed that some listed companies holding crypto saw their market valuations soar to more than double the cost of their digital assets. According to findings published by Singapore-based 10X Research earlier this month, retail investors may have lost an estimated $17 billion trading digital asset treasury companies, as many shareholders overpaid for crypto exposure by purchasing company shares at a significant premium to the company’s net asset value. Some of the major Hong Kong-based DATs, such as Boyaa Interactive and Ourgame International, have also seen their share prices struggle in recent times, with the crypto market’s volatility over the past few months adding to the pressure. As such, Hong Kong regulators are taking a more cautious stance toward listed firms shifting into digital asset treasury strategies, and have already moved against several attempts to rebrand traditional businesses into crypto-holding vehicles without clear operating substance, citing listing rules that restrict companies from holding.

Hong Kong exchange questions DAT transformation plans of multiple companies
The post Hong Kong exchange questions DAT transformation plans of multiple companies appeared com. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange has “blocked” the transformation plans proposed by at least five listed companies seeking to convert into digital asset treasury told reporters that Hong Kong lacks legislation regulating listed companies’ participation in cryptocurrency investment or treasury arrangements. He explained that the regulator is monitoring market developments closely and will issue a directive if new guidance is needed to safeguard investors. “The DAT model has gained popularity in the United States,” Huang said, referencing the trend of firms that allocate cash reserves to buy digital assets as treasury holdings. “There are many documents and analyses showing that when a company buys $1 billion in virtual currencies, its market value can rise by more than double. But that situation is also under review in the United States.” The CSRC chairman also warned that most local investors have little understanding of what DATs actually are. “As a regulatory agency, investor education is essential. After education, investors will realize that stock prices and valuations of companies transforming into DATs often carry significant premiums. If these activities become officially regulated one day, those premiums could disappear overnight,” he surmised. He added that if any DAT company were to apply for a Hong Kong initial public offering, the firm would have to fully convince both the CSRC and the Stock Exchange during the approval process. “It should be.
Bitcoin ETFs end inflow run with $470.7m in outflows
The post Bitcoin ETFs end inflow run with $470. 7m in outflows appeared com. U. S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds returned to net outflows on Wednesday as investors took profits and repositioned themselves ahead of Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech. Summary U. S. Bitcoin ETFs recorded $470. 7 million in net outflows on Wednesday. Spot ETF funds broke the inflow streak as Bitcoin failed to rally even after rate cuts were announced in the U. S. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has cast doubt on the likelihood of another rate cut this year. According to data from SoSovalue, the 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $470. 71 million in net outflows on Oct. 29, ending a streak of consecutive inflows seen over the prior four days that drew in around $462. 7 million into the funds. Fidelity’s FBTC and ARK 21Share’s ARKB led the outflows with $164. 36 million and $143. 8 million, leaving the funds. BlackRock’s IBIT and Grayscale’s GBTC funds shed $88 million and $65 million, respectively. None of the BTC funds saw any inflows on the day. Trading volume for these investment vehicles stood at $7. 07 billion, significantly higher than $4. 18 billion recorded the previous day. Meanwhile, their Ethereum counterparts also resumed outflows with $81. 44 million flowing out of the funds following two straight days of net inflows. Outflows from both Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs likely came as investors opted to book profits and adopt a more cautious stance ahead of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s press statement following the conclusion of the FOMC meeting yesterday. Although the Fed’s 25bps rate cut came in line with most analysts’ expectations, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) slipped as traders sold the news, a classic case of “buy the rumor, sell the news.” Powell also threw cold water on hopes for another rate cut this year, dashing the optimism bulls had built up in recent weeks. “A further reduction in the policy rate at.
