#Strategy加码BTC配置 The Hong Kong and Macau markets welcome a major move!

The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission has officially approved the conduct of over-the-counter (OTC) services within the virtual asset trading platform framework. This is not a pilot project but a compliant plan that is directly implemented.

What does this mean? Simply put — legitimate peer-to-peer trading channels now have official recognition, ensuring liquidity and security.

The first batch of supported cryptocurrencies includes:
- $BTC and $ETH , two established mainstream coins
- $USDT and $USDC , two major stablecoin families
- Plus the on-chain version USDT-TRC20

Supported fiat currencies are USD and HKD, which is undoubtedly convenient for traders in the Asia-Pacific region. Especially with HKD support, deposits and withdrawals locally will be much smoother.

The message this policy sends is quite clear — Hong Kong's attitude toward virtual assets has shifted from "exploration" to "embrace," and the standardization of the OTC market is beginning to take shape. For those looking to participate in this market, the issues of compliant channels and liquidity are finally addressed.

BTC0,39%

ETH-1,13%

Hong Kong dollar deposits finally no longer require circling around, now I can directly go all-in on BTC Waiting for the Hong Kong and Macau wave of benefits to rise, if the tiger doesn't show its power, we might think we have no temper OTC compliance is indeed a big move, finally able to play with peace of mind I'm just worried it might be just talk, and the execution will still be the same This wave of Hong Kong and Macau policy benefits for BTC, we need to increase our positions, everyone Although it's good, I still have some doubts, Hong Kong's temper can turn hostile at any moment

Are deposits and withdrawals in HKD smooth? Bro, now you don't have to bother with so many middlemen, just go straight to OTC and enjoy it. Wait, really? Approved so quickly? As soon as Hong Kong and Macau make a move, both BTC and ETH are coming, and stablecoins are fully included. This pace is a bit aggressive. Compliance is compliance, but I still want to see if the liquidity can keep up. Don't end up making it useless in the end. Finally, there's a reliable window now, much more solid than those gray areas before. This move by Hong Kong City is definitely about embracing virtual assets seriously, the signals are very clear.
