HashKey Chain has upgraded its brand to "the preferred public chain for finance and RWA," promoting the global digital transformation of finance and the development of RWA asset tokenization through a deep integration of technology, compliance, and ecology, establishing a trust mechanism that coordinates on-chain and off-chain, and becoming a hub for traditional finance and Web3 innovation.
On April 6, 2025, the third Web3 Festival, co-hosted by Wanxiang Blockchain Lab and HashKey Group, opened at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. As one of the most influential events in the Web3 field in Asia, the Web3 Festival attracted over 300 global experts and more than 50,000 attendees to discuss how decentralized technology is reshaping the financial system and asset forms.
In the main venue of this grand event, Kay, CEO of HashKey Eco Labs, delivered an exciting keynote speech titled "HashKey Chain: Bridge Tradition and Innovation, Reshape the NEW RWA Ecosystem." She pointed out that the global financial market is at a critical juncture of digital transformation, and the rise of RWA and Onchain Finance is becoming the core driving force of this transformation. While revealing this historic trend, Kay officially announced the brand strategic upgrade of HashKey Chain, positioning it as "the preferred public chain for finance and RWA," a value evolution that is destined to become an important coordinate in the digital transformation process of financial history.
Historic Opportunities in the Global Financial Digital Wave
Kay pointed out at the beginning that traditional finance has evolved over thousands of years, from barter to the modern securitization system, and is now facing a value revolution brought about by blockchain technology. Kay stated, "The current global financial market is over $400 trillion, while the cryptocurrency market is only about $1 trillion. The gap in between is the historic opportunity for RWA asset tokenization."
According to research data from Chainlink, the RWA tokenization market is expected to exceed $16.1 trillion by 2030, with an exponential growth of over $10 billion achieved in 2024.
Behind this trend is the urgent need to address efficiency bottlenecks and inclusivity challenges in the traditional financial system. Although RWA is widely regarded as the next trillion-dollar track, the actual implementation of asset tokenization on-chain still faces multiple challenges. Kay used the metaphor of "how to fit an elephant into a refrigerator" to sharply point out the industry's pain points: "Currently, most projects only focus on how to choose different brands of refrigerators (selecting ecosystems) and designing 'faster refrigerators' (underlying technology), while neglecting the most critical question—how to truly and compliantly put the elephant (real assets) on-chain efficiently."
For financial assets, going on-chain requires solving technical and legal issues such as on-chain identity verification, compliance framework adaptation, and income rights segmentation; non-financial assets involve more complex property registration, cross-regional supervision, and value assessment systems. Kay said, "RWA is not simply about data going on-chain; it requires reconstructing a trust mechanism that coordinates on-chain and off-chain."
HashKey Chain's Strategic Positioning: Building the Preferred Public Chain for Finance and RWA
In response, HashKey Chain provided its answer—"Technology as the foundation, compliance as the bridge, ecology as the flywheel." Kay pointed out, "As an Ethereum Layer 2 solution, HashKey Chain inherits Ethereum's decentralized security and broad global consensus while being able to enhance transaction efficiency through higher performance, significantly reducing operational costs for issuers." Currently, HashKey Chain can compress the cost of a single transaction to below $0.001, with a settlement time reduced to 0.01 seconds, sufficient to support large-scale deployment of institutional RWA. More importantly, through on-chain AML systems, multi-layer security certifications, and "lifeboat" emergency mechanisms, HashKey Chain provides a foundational framework that meets regional regulatory requirements for various assets.
"We have closely collaborated with regulatory bodies such as the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, spending years refining compliance solutions," Kay mentioned. China Pacific Insurance's dollar money market fund deployed on HashKey Chain achieved a subscription scale of $100 million on its first day of operation; Bosera Fund launched the world's first tokenized Money Market ETF, which received approval from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission for issuance on HashKey Chain. These collaborations not only demonstrate the recognition of HashKey Chain's technology and ecological construction by regulatory entities and institutions but also provide strong endorsement for RWA asset tokenization.
HashKey Chain's Brand Elevation: From "On-chain Wall Street" to "Global Value Network"
While revealing the ecological progress, Kay also announced a comprehensive upgrade of the HashKey Chain brand. This brand upgrade is not just a visual refresh but signifies a deep evolution of HashKey Chain's strategic thinking. In the past, the narrative of public chains often revolved around technical parameters; now, HashKey Chain is shifting its focus to the essence of value creation. "We are no longer just a public chain that processes transactions; we are a value network connecting two financial worlds," Kay explained.
Behind this upgrade is the comprehensive empowerment of the HashKey Group ecosystem. As the only Web3 institution in Asia with licenses for exchanges, custody, asset management, and compliance, HashKey can provide one-stop services for RWA projects, from asset issuance and liquidity support to cross-border settlement. Starting from the comprehensive incentives of HashKey Chain itself, through a $50 million "Atlas Grand ecological incentive program," HashKey Chain focuses on supporting RWA, MMF, PayFi, and stablecoin tracks; its on-chain ecology can combine traditional asset returns with on-chain liquidity incentives, significantly enhancing investor returns.
Market data confirms the effectiveness of this strategy: within just four months of launch, HashKey Chain has attracted nearly 1 million active addresses, completed 25 million zero-risk transactions, and deployed over 50 ecological projects. Collaborations with leading protocols such as Chainlink oracles and Orbiter cross-chain bridges further enhance the interoperability between on-chain assets and off-chain value.
Future Roadmap: Defining Global Standards for RWA
Looking towards 2025, Kay unveiled the "2025 HashKey Chain Product Roadmap" during her speech—centered on the overall asset architecture of OnChain Finance, driven by AI MCP Framework-powered smart contracts, integrating key modules such as RWA Bridge, MMF Stablecoin, and MMF Yield Hub, providing full-stack support for asset mapping, value stabilization, and management of RWA, expanding the application scenarios of RWA on-chain, and enhancing asset efficiency and liquidity.
This framework forms a deep synergy with HashKey Chain's three core plans:
- Asset underlying expansion: Build an RWA issuance platform, a stablecoin innovation center, and Bitcoin ecological applications to release the on-chain value of trillion-dollar real assets;
- On-chain financial productization: Launch the MMF wealth management platform and MMF stablecoin in Q2; create RWA Layer to empower the ecosystem in Q3; and launch a fully functional on-chain financial platform in Q4 to achieve a closed loop and sustainable development of OnChain Finance;
- Co-building global standards: Release the "Global RWA Practice White Paper," collaborating with regulatory bodies and partners to define the path for asset tokenization and the ecological closed loop post-tokenization, providing important guidance on compliance frameworks and business models for global RWA participants.
"Our ultimate goal is to become the central hub for traditional finance and Web3 innovation," Kay concluded, "This journey cannot be undertaken alone; only by co-building with developers, institutions, and users, and finding like-minded partners in this early stage full of possibilities in the industry, can we reach the other side of the trillion-dollar market."
Conclusion: A Revolution of Trust and Efficiency
Kay's speech was not only an in-depth discussion on the collaborative relationship between RWA and public chains but also a return to the essence of finance—whether it is the millennium evolution of traditional finance or the decade-long innovation of Web3, its core has always been to reduce trust costs and enhance resource allocation efficiency. The explosion of RWA is a key turning point in this revolution from the virtual to the real.
As trillion-dollar real assets flow onto the chain through HashKey Chain's "bridge," a more open, efficient, and inclusive global financial network is emerging. Perhaps, as Kay said, "We are not subverting tradition; we are writing the next chapter of financial history."
