Introduction
Today, some rumors spread: "JD Ant was rejected by the central bank to exit the stablecoin license," and then many influencers quickly deleted it, which shows a lack of intelligence. Although the Hong Kong stablecoin regulations combined with the new guidelines seem to impose many restrictions that appear to be burdensome, what is the essential logic behind it? It is more about restricting USD stablecoins, leaving room for offshore RMB stablecoins; restricting retail stablecoins, first focusing on expanding the institutional market for stablecoins.
JD Ant was rejected by the central bank, not being withdrawn from the stablecoin license, which is likely due to the rejection of the offshore RMB stablecoin. Joycoin aims to be a Hong Kong dollar stablecoin, and the offshore RMB stablecoin will likely first come from Chinese financial institutions involved in banking operations (in Hong Kong, Chinese institutions refer to central state-owned financial institutions based in Hong Kong), rather than JD Ant.
From this topic, let's talk about Hong Kong stability.
