Futu Securities Launches Bitcoin and Ether Trading for 22 Million Users in Hong Kong

Futu Securities, Hong Kong's largest online broker, has introduced Bitcoin and Ether trading to 22 million customers, pioneering cryptocurrency offerings for Hong Kong retail investors. The move follows a surge in investor interest, evidenced by Bitcoin's record open interest of $39.4 billion and the recent launch of the first spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US.

Additionally, Franklin Templeton and BitfFlyer are expanding crypto operations in Japan, while Hong Kong has unveiled a stablecoin licensing regime, though facing challenges with crypto firms withdrawing license applications. Futu's new offering includes trading incentives, commission waivers, and access to popular stocks like Nvidia and Alibaba, positioning them ahead of rivals like Tiger Brokers.
