PANews reported on October 2 that according to Hong Kong media Ming Pao, Ye Zhiheng, executive director of the intermediary agency department of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission in charge of virtual asset transactions, said in an interview with Hong Kong media that WA accounts for less than 1% of the global digital asset management scale (AUM), and transaction volume is far less than 1%. The RWA tokenized products currently on the market are mainly related to fixed-income products (such as money market funds). If they are to be applied to securities trading and settlement, the latency of blockchain technology has no advantage over the high efficiency of traditional exchange trading and settlement systems. It is difficult to cooperate with high-frequency trading and is temporarily unsuitable for stock trading. Ye Zhiheng also revealed that there are about 300 colleagues in the Intermediary Institutions Department of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, 50 of whom are highly involved in the supervision of virtual assets. Their responsibilities include licensing, AML, etc., and they plan to hire external personnel to improve work efficiency.PANews reported on October 2 that according to Hong Kong media Ming Pao, Ye Zhiheng, executive director of the intermediary agency department of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission in charge of virtual asset transactions, said in an interview with Hong Kong media that WA accounts for less than 1% of the global digital asset management scale (AUM), and transaction volume is far less than 1%.

Vietnam's central bank expects credit growth to drive liquidity into cryptocurrency markets
PANews reported on October 4th that Cointelegraph, citing Reuters, reported that the State Bank of Vietnam (Bank of Vietnam) expects credit growth to reach around 20% in 2025. With the increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies in the region, this move could lead to liquidity flowing into the global cryptocurrency market. Pham Thanh Ha, Deputy Governor of the Bank of Vietnam, said on Friday that further interest rate cuts are needed to promote economic growth and ease the uncertainty brought about by the US tariff increase. Vietnam’s government legalized cryptocurrencies in June as part of a broader tech regulatory initiative that categorized cryptocurrencies into virtual assets representing tokenized real-world products and crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ether. However, under the new cryptocurrency regulations and its five-year sandbox pilot program, which launched in September, the government prohibits the issuance of on-chain fiat-backed assets, including stablecoins and securities.
