HKWeb 3Feastive Roundtable: From the bottom to the entrance, the path for crypto assets to mainstream finance

ChainCatcher reported on the spot that Franklin Bi, partner of Pantera Capital, Mykolas Maauskas, senior policy director of Bybit, and Zeng Yuchao, managing director of Futu Group, jointly attended the HKWeb3Feastive Roundtable to share "From the Bottom to the Entrance: The Path for Cryptographic Assets to Mainstream Finance."<br /> Zeng Yuchao introduced that Futu is Hong Kong's largest retail brokerage firm with a market share of over 50%. It obtained the VATP license in January this year. Last month, all additional conditions were removed to achieve full integration of securities brokerage and crypto trading. Futu cooperated with China Asset Management Fund to issue token-based money market funds last year, which can achieve T+0 redemption on the same day. In terms of AI, Futu has launched an Agent skill function that allows users to set strategies and automatically execute transactions through natural language. He believes that the transformation from a graphical interface to an AI interface will be realized in the future.<br /> Mykolas Maauskas pointed out that companies that currently complain about too much regulation will miss the honeymoon period in the future, and larger-scale regulation is coming. He analyzed global regulatory differences: Europe leads MiCA, the United States supports private issuance, China supports government digital currencies, and Hong Kong serves as a tokenization gateway. He warned that many native crypto companies claim to subvert traditional finance, but are actually being acquired by traditional institutions. He believes that the most fundamental change in AI is at the front end: users only need to express their intentions, and AI decides to implement strategies independently. Bybit is building a one-stop financial platform that integrates IBAN, cards, payments and investments. He believes that many traditional wealth management companies will be eliminated because they have historically made you feel rich rather than truly helped you accumulate wealth.<br /> FranklinBi said that blockchain is the perfect technology for building financial systems for AIAgents. When Agents choose between traditional accounts and stablecoins, they are choosing stablecoins, which is the beginning of an exponential trend.
