On September 18, 2025, the "Hong Kong Stablecoin and RWA Development Frontier Seminar," hosted by the Beijing Internet Finance Industry Association, was successfully held at the 91 Technology Building. Association leaders, professors from renowned domestic universities, industry experts, and corporate representatives gathered together to engage in in-depth discussions on the compliance paths, practical cases, and future trends of stablecoins and RWA (real-world assets), injecting new momentum into the integration of digital asset research and industry.
Association President Xu Zewei delivered an opening speech, stating that Hong Kong's core status as a free port remains unchanged. The accelerated inflow of international capital not only confirms its status but also demonstrates unwavering confidence in the Chinese economy. This market trust resonates with China's confidence in development and innovative energy, laying a solid foundation for regulatory compliance research on stablecoins and RWAs. He emphasized that the association has included this area in its research scope and will continue to fully play a bridging role, pooling resources from all parties to promote in-depth research and regulatory compliance practices.
Subsequently, the Association announced the establishment of the Digital Asset Research Center, presented a plaque on-site, and appointed Zero One Finance CEO Bai Liang as the Center's Director, responsible for coordinating research organization, leading industry exploration, and connecting with industry resources. The Association also issued appointment letters to the first group of experts as members of the Digital Asset Research Center's Expert Committee. These appointees include renowned scholars such as Professors Guo Hua and Guo Tianyong of the Central University of Finance and Economics, and Professor Wang Lei of the Shanghai University of Political Science and Law, as well as senior executives from industry companies. The Expert Committee will continue to expand, recruiting more leading experts in fields such as law, finance, and technology to build a comprehensive research support system.
During the perspective-sharing session, guests from all walks of life contributed insightful comments. Zero One Finance CEO Bai Liang reviewed the development of stablecoins, stating that the stablecoin market has evolved from wild growth to compliant development. The tokenization of RWAs is injecting vitality into global finance. Hong Kong's practices in areas such as tokenized green bonds provide an important reference for the industry to understand relevant institutional design and operating models. Furthermore, the integration of stablecoins and RWAs will become a key driver of digital finance development.
From a legal perspective, Professor Wang Lei of the Shanghai University of Political Science and Law suggested conducting special seminars categorized by enterprise type to precisely explore compliance paths in Hong Kong. Professor Guo Tianyong of the Central University of Finance and Economics emphasized the need to balance cross-border capital flows with regulatory requirements and be vigilant against systemic risks. Professor Guo Hua focused on the core contradiction between "real-name and anonymity," proposing a gradual exploration of interactive mechanisms among stablecoins, RWAs, and the digital RMB. Guo Dagang, strategic advisor to the Beijing Internet Finance Industry Association, called for the establishment of synchronized institutional constraints and risk control frameworks to ensure steady development. Based on practical experience, corporate representatives believed that asset tokenization requires addressing the authenticity and compliance of underlying assets, while also building a sound trading mechanism and investor suitability management system.
Guo Dagang said that the association will focus on promoting the establishment of a special group for stablecoin and RWA compliance research, continue to track domestic and foreign policies and market trends, study cross-border capital flows and risk control solutions, and promote industry-university-research cooperation to ensure that research results can be implemented in a timely manner.
At the end of the meeting, Xu Zewei stated that stablecoins and RWAs present strategic opportunities for promoting the integrated development of digital finance. The Association will leverage the Digital Asset Research Center to regularly organize research and exchanges, generating a series of research findings and policy recommendations to inform regulatory decisions and provide direction for industry development. He specifically mentioned that the Association had issued a "Risk Warning Regarding the Use of New Concepts Such as 'Stablecoins' for Illegal Fundraising" on its official WeChat account on July 9th, alerting the market to potential risks. This seminar continues the Association's consistent commitment to risk warnings and industry self-discipline, and demonstrates its commitment to actively promoting research and industry practice under the premise of manageable risks. He expressed hope that through the joint efforts of academia, industry, associations, and regulators, the implementation of stablecoins and RWAs in China will be both healthy and orderly.
