In the context of actively building a digital financial hub in Hong Kong, two major announcements reveal the deep involvement of traditional giants in the stablecoin and real-world asset (RWA) sectors. JD.com's JD Coin Chain not only clarified rumors about exiting the Hong Kong stablecoin business but also made a high-profile recruitment for the position of "Stablecoin On-Chain Activity Planner," aiming at the DeFi ecosystem. Meanwhile, CMB International Asset Management Co., Ltd. announced the successful tokenization of its public dollar money market fund (RWA) and achieved on-chain distribution through multi-chain deployment. These events collectively indicate that, under the wave of compliance, stablecoins and RWAs are accelerating to become key bridges connecting traditional finance and the Web3 world, with trillion-dollar market potential about to explode.
- JD's High-Profile Recruitment for "On-Chain Operator": Ambitious Stablecoin Business
On August 10, JD Technology Group recently opened recruitment for the position of "Stablecoin On-Chain Activity Planner," attracting market attention.
Job Responsibilities: This position is mainly responsible for formulating and executing the on-chain growth strategy for stablecoins, analyzing on-chain data to optimize market strategies, expanding cooperation with ecological partners such as DeFi protocols, DEXs, and lending platforms, and planning and executing marketing activities. It also requires linking Web3 industry resources to expand the coverage of activities and enhance brand influence.
Job Requirements: Candidates should have over 3 years of experience in Web3 growth operations or blockchain marketing, with successful on-chain activity cases; have deeply participated in the economic model design or growth activities of at least one DeFi protocol; be familiar with market growth strategies in the DeFi, PayFi, and trading platform ecosystems; be proficient in DEX, lending, derivatives protocols, and stablecoin application scenarios, and possess collaboration and cross-department communication skills.
This high-profile recruitment not only directly responds to previous rumors about JD exiting the Hong Kong stablecoin business but also clarifies JD's strategic direction in the stablecoin field: to deeply participate in the on-chain ecosystem and integrate with DeFi protocols, rather than merely staying at the issuance level.
Clarifying Rumors: Recently, there were reports that several institutions, including JD, were planning to exit the Hong Kong stablecoin business. JD Coin Chain, responsible for digital asset-related businesses under JD, quickly responded, emphasizing that the claim of "exiting the Hong Kong stablecoin business" is seriously inconsistent with the facts, and is instead steadily advancing the application preparation for the Hong Kong stablecoin license as planned.
Compliance Advancement: JD Coin Chain revealed that the team has formed a special group composed of experts from compliance, technology, and financial business fields, focusing on the Hong Kong "Stablecoin Regulatory Ordinance" and related guidelines to refine the requirements for the license application. At the same time, JD Coin Chain stated that it has maintained regular communication with relevant regulatory agencies in Hong Kong to ensure that the application work is always advanced within a compliance framework.
- CMB International Public Fund "Goes On-Chain": A Key Step in RWA Tokenization
On August 11, CMB International Asset Management Co., Ltd. announced the completion of its cooperation with DigiFT to achieve the tokenization (RWA) of the CMB International dollar money market fund and on-chain distribution.
RWA Implementation: This cooperation will provide on-chain sales services for qualified professional investors on the DigiFT platform through the recognition of the fund in Hong Kong and Singapore, with token products linked to the performance of the CMB International dollar money market fund issued by DigiFT.
Multi-Chain Deployment and Multi-Dimensional Liquidity: This token product is the first in the industry to be distributed across multiple jurisdictions, achieving multi-chain deployment on the DigiFT platform, supporting multi-modal currency subscriptions and redemptions, and providing multi-dimensional liquidity, with leading advantages in technology, compliance, and experience.
Partners: The well-known Singapore RWA licensed exchange DigiFT and RWA service provider OnChain provide distribution and technical support for this token product.
As a representative of Chinese bank-affiliated brokerages, the successful tokenization of its public fund by CMB International marks a key step for RWA under a compliance framework, opening up new pathways for traditional financial assets to go on-chain.
- Strengthening Hong Kong's Position as a Digital Financial Hub: Policies, Capital, and Talent Gathered
Since the implementation of the "Stablecoin Regulatory Ordinance" in Hong Kong in 2023, it has become one of the regions with the clearest regulatory framework for stablecoins globally, attracting numerous entities, including traditional financial institutions and technology companies.
Record Number of Enterprises: On August 10, Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee stated that as of the end of July, the total number of registered local companies in Hong Kong exceeded 1.5 million, and the number of registered non-Hong Kong companies exceeded 15,000, both figures reaching historical highs.
Investment and Employment: From January 2023 to July this year, the Investment Promotion Agency has assisted 1,333 enterprises in establishing or expanding their businesses in Hong Kong, bringing in HKD 174 billion in first-year direct investment and creating over 19,000 new jobs.
These figures reflect Hong Kong's strong capability in attracting global capital and enterprises, providing fertile ground for the development of digital financial businesses such as stablecoins and RWAs.
JD's high-profile recruitment for "On-Chain Operator" targets the DeFi ecosystem; CMB International's public fund successfully "goes on-chain," achieving breakthroughs in RWA tokenization. These two major events collectively reveal that under Hong Kong's clear regulatory framework, traditional giants are accelerating their layout in the stablecoin and RWA sectors. Hong Kong's position as an international digital financial hub is increasingly solidified, with the gathering of policies, capital, and talent indicating that the trillion-dollar RWA market potential is about to explode, and stablecoins and RWAs are accelerating to become key bridges connecting traditional finance and the Web3 world.
