On July 3, 2025, the " 2025 Focus on Hong Kong New Policies·Hong Kong Station " forum co-organized by Web3Labs and blockchain infrastructure company Plume was held in Causeway Bay. The event was specially supported by China Resources Science and Technology Research Institute, Cyberport, Animoca Brands, OSL, China Renaissance Capital, Walnut Capital, Guofu Quantum Innovation Co., Ltd., MetaEra, and Techub News. It also attracted many people from the political, financial and technology fields to participate in discussing the potential opportunities for the integration of traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi), and focusing on the digital development of real world assets (RWA).
Policies lead the transformation and build new financial infrastructure
The event revolved around the "Hong Kong Digital Asset Policy Declaration 2.0" framework , which was recently launched in Hong Kong, to explore how it can pave the way for financial innovation, while taking into account compliance and technological development, and enhance Hong Kong's status as a global asset tokenization center. Wu Jiezhuang , member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the Hong Kong Legislative Council's Web3 and Virtual Asset Development Subcommittee, said in his speech that the SAR government is accelerating the "Digital Asset 2.0 Policy Declaration" and actively attracting international funds and innovative platforms to enter by improving supervision and financial technology infrastructure. He emphasized that "compliance-based, innovation-driven" will be Hong Kong's core policy for the future development of Web3.
Stablecoins and traditional institutions entering the market become key discussion points
In a roundtable discussion with OSL, China Renaissance, Animoca Brands , Gaofeng Hibiscus Investment, Bosera International and Plume , participants discussed the role and limitations of stablecoins in promoting RWA liquidity, and pointed out that technical integration and regulatory uncertainty currently faced by traditional institutions are still the main challenges. Participants agreed that the price stability of stablecoins can serve as the basis for cross-market transactions of RWA, but in order to attract more traditional financial participation, it is necessary to unify technical standards and clarify regulatory paths.
Web3Labs Plume RWA Bridge Project
During the forum, Web3Labs and Plume jointly announced the official launch of the "RWA Bridge Program" , which focuses on building a bridge between traditional finance and Web3 and assisting financial institutions in entering the world of on-chain assets. The program will provide funding, technical tools and compliance guidance for start-up projects, promote asset on-chain, and promote the implementation of RWA categories such as private credit, US debt, and alternative assets.
Plume strengthens its Hong Kong layout to support blockchain assets
Teddy Pornprinya , co-founder and chief business officer of Plume, said that the company will continue to invest in building the connection foundation between traditional assets and blockchain networks. The RWA asset management system it developed has served many international institutions and has communicated with the US SEC's Crypto Task Force to promote the compliance development of digital assets and RWA.
Plume also plans to launch an institutional-grade RWA trading platform in Hong Kong, and its infrastructure has been used in cooperation with many well-known financial institutions such as Pimco, Apollo, WLFI, UBS, etc. Plume participates in the upcoming "Digital Asset Regulatory Sandbox" pilot program to help the local ecosystem align with the international level and further consolidate Hong Kong's leading position in the RWA field.
The Hong Kong event attracted more than 300 industry representatives and generated a number of potential cooperation intentions. With the full promotion of Hong Kong's "Digital Asset 2.0 Policy", Web3Labs and Plume said they will work with more industry partners to accelerate the integration of traditional finance and blockchain ecology, and help Hong Kong seize the commanding heights in the global Web3 competition.
