Hong Kong asset management company promotes investment in spot Ether ETF this year

Hong Kong’s move to stake a spot Ethereum ETF could be a game-changer, giving it a competitive advantage over US ETFs and solidifying Hong Kong as a leading digital asset hub.

Crypto asset management companies in Hong Kong are actively introducing staking to Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs). If approved, this innovation could make Hong Kong’s ETFs more competitive globally than their U.S. counterparts.

Animoca Brands Chairman Yat Siu mentioned in an interview with The Block that Hong Kong is actively considering ETH staking for ETFs. He expressed optimism about the likelihood of this happening within the year, citing slow progress in the United States and the upcoming election as factors affecting the timeline.

HashKey, a leading digital asset company in Hong Kong, is developing a compliant staking solution for ETFs. Livio Weng, CEO of HashKey Exchange, explained that they have come up with a plan to reap the rewards without increasing the risks. Details are still confidential, but Weng emphasized that the focus is on a controlled and compliant approach.

Blockdaemon’s Staking Push

Passion extends beyond individual companies. Blockchain infrastructure provider Blockdaemon is working with Hong Kong ETF issuers and custodians to explore staking possibilities. Glenn Woo, Head of APAC Sales at Blockdaemon, is optimistic based on industry discussions. “We all have a positive outlook on getting (Ether staking) approved,” Woo said.

This joint effort aims to secure staking approval by the end of the year. Mr. Woo explained it this way:

“That’s the biggest missing piece, and there seems to be a consensus that this is the missing piece.”

Blockdaemon’s experience with European ETFs strengthens our confidence that similar success can be achieved in Hong Kong.

Spot cryptocurrency ETFs in Hong Kong have performed modestly compared to their US counterparts. The total daily trading volume of the three spot Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong is much lower than in the United States. Animoca’s Siu acknowledges this gap but believes staking can change the game. “Hong Kong must be able to grow bigger… “You have to be competitive,” he stressed.

The US SEC’s reluctance to support ETF staking presents a significant opportunity for Hong Kong. Staking rewards can incentivize investors and give Hong Kong ETFs a clear edge. Siu sees this as an important first step.

“I think staking could be Hong Kong’s biggest differentiator.”

3-4% staking returns are missing from US ETFs.

Blockdaemon’s Woo echoes Siu’s thoughts on investor interest. He noted that many potential Ethereum ETF buyers are being deterred by the lack of staking features. The potential loss of staking returns, estimated at 3-4%, is a significant deterrent for investors.

The Hong Kong government and regulators appear to be aware of this gap. Woo emphasizes that the Hong Kong government and regulators are putting pressure on the process to expedite it. Effective communication between ETF issuers and regulators regarding education and staking strategies is critical to securing approval.

Hong Kong’s move to stake a spot Ethereum ETF demonstrates its proactive approach to gaining a competitive edge in the global cryptocurrency market. If successful, this innovation could attract significant investor interest and strengthen Hong Kong’s position as a leading digital asset hub.
