Hong Kong’s first two licensed issuers are no longer waiting to launch. HSBC began rolling out RedCoin through PayMe on October 23, while Anchorpoint’s HKDAP has been in a restricted institutional phase since August. Their next challenge is getting regulated Hong Kong dollar tokens into ordinary payments without losing control of who can hold and redeem them. A PayMe customer may see RedCoin inside a familiar payment app and never need to learn how to copy a blockchain address. An HKDAP user in the present phase goes through an authorised distributor, meets institutional eligibility rules and uses verified wallets.
