PANews reported on July 30th that, according to Caixin, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority will open applications for the first batch of stablecoin issuer licenses from August 1 to September 30, 2025. All compliant stablecoin holders in Hong Kong will be required to provide real-name verification. Techub News contacted Hong Kong Legislative Council member Ng Kit-chung regarding this matter. He stated that the HKMA will indeed implement Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations, but the specific implementation method has not yet been finalized, and real-name verification is only one method. Ng emphasized that the specific plan will be submitted to the HKMA by the stablecoin issuer, and the HKMA will then approve it upon its satisfaction. Furthermore, KYC regulations for stablecoins will be more stringent than those for cash.

BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
