HashKey Group, operator of Hong Kong’s largest licensed crypto exchange, has reportedly filed confidentially for an IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, aiming to raise as much as $500 million.

Building on Hong Kong’s growing crypto-friendly climate

Hong Kong has introduced a clear virtual asset regulatory framework to strengthen its position as a digital-asset hub, attracting growing interest from Chinese investors despite Beijing’s continued ban on crypto. A possible HashKey IPO would act as a gauge of investor interest in Asian companies with a cryptocurrency connection.

In comparison, U.S.-based stablecoin issuer Circle Internet Group successfully raised nearly $1.1 billion in June, with its stock soaring more than 380% since. Founded in 2018, HashKey provides asset management services, a venture arm, and a regulated exchange in Singapore and Hong Kong. Previously, Gaorong Ventures invested $30 million, valuing the company at over $1 billion.

Hashkey’s growth and strategic milestones

Over the course of 2025, HashKey has quickly increased its global presence. In January, it secured conditional approval from Dubai’s VARA to operate in the Middle East, followed by regulatory greenlights in Bermuda and Ireland.

In February, it gained approval from Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission for virtual asset discretionary management for professional investors and launched the HashKey 20 Index Fund targeting high-net-worth individuals.

The company has also expanded its web3 presence by launching HashKey Chain, an Ethereum (ETH) layer-2 solution, and partnering with China New City Group on tokenized real estate projects. Its OTC trading volume has increased significantly, indicating strong institutional interest.

HashKey’s native token, HSK, has surged 13% following  IPO reports, but investor sentiment is still mixed due to previous disputes over liquidity management and token buybacks.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
