The permission, sought for months, marks the beginning of a new era for the region's Bitcoin business. According to Crypto Daily, prominent asset managers have been preparing for this event since the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission authorized three Spot Bitcoin ETF applications earlier this month. China Asset Management, Harvest Global Investments, Bosera International, and HashKey received regulatory licenses to offer these ETFs.
Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, Bloomberg's ETF analysts, published the ETF fees in an X post. They said they were lower than expected and cited this as a "good sign."
Launching these ETFs is expected to ignite significant interest from domestic and foreign investors, positioning Hong Kong as a premier destination for Bitcoin investment opportunities. This development could potentially reshape the landscape of Bitcoin investments.

According to WuBlockchain, "the issuance scale of Hong Kong's Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, which will be launched tomorrow at UTC+8, is expected to reach US$200 million to US$300 million, exceeding the first-day issuance scale of US$125 million in the United States."
"China AMC is pretty confident that HK can outdo the US in bitcoin ETF flows and volume on day one. It also says other regions like Singapore and the Middle East could seek out the ETFs, though they are confirmed off limits for China mainland investors," Balchunas echoed in a similar statement. Anything close to $125m would be unreal on day one for HK; that's equivalent to $21b in the US!"
Experts from Singapore-based Matrixport and Markus Thielen of 10x Research foresee that Hong Kong's Spot Bitcoin ETFs could potentially stimulate up to $25 billion in fresh demand. This projection underscores the crucial role of these financial products in legitimizing Bitcoin as a mainstream asset class.
As the ETFs go live in Hong Kong, the country also welcomes the Bitcoin Asia Conference, which begins next week. Marketing for both the conference and the ETFs is currently being promoted to local residents.
