Did you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the dynamism of Hong Kong FinTech Week?
For us at DigiFT, the event was not just exciting—it marked a significant moment in our journey. We were privileged to engage actively with industry leaders and innovators amidst Hong Kong’s vibrant scene. Our Founder & CEO, Henry Zhang, was at the forefront, contributing to several pivotal panels and discussions on the intersection of Web3 and financial technology.

A standout topic that resonated with participants was the tokenization of real-world assets—a concept that is growing into more than a mere buzzword, capturing the interest of industry leaders and investors alike.
During a panel and compelling roundtable with Lun Partners Group, Henry explored the latest trends in digital asset innovation. A thought-provoking question was posed: How are decentralized exchanges navigating the fiercely competitive landscape amid the constantly shifting trends? Moreover, is there a gateway for non-licensed entities within the realm of RWA tokenization?

Henry responded with an intriguing argument—is blockchain to be viewed merely as an asset, or as a transformative method? He firmly advocates the latter, suggesting that the true potential of blockchain extends well beyond cryptocurrency. With traditional financial assets vastly outstripping crypto in volume, Henry foresees a future rich with possibilities for tokenizing these traditional assets.
From the outset, Henry has emphasized our unwavering commitment to regulation and compliance, not as a barrier but as a strategic advantage critical for navigating the dynamic Web3 landscape.
Furthering the discussion, George Yu, Founder & President of Uweb, highlighted Hong Kong’s strategic role as a global financial center. He projected that mainstream financial institutions in the East are on the verge of spearheading RWA innovation.
Additionally George announced his work on a pioneering book centered on RWAs, featuring DigiFT as a foundational case study. His vision is clear: RWAs are on a path to forge a market surpassing DeFi within the next 3 years.
Reflecting on our Hong Kong experience, we return invigorated and ready to explore the expansive potential of Web3 and RWAs, poised to contribute to the financial industry’s transformation.
