Hong Kong academic critiques crypto policies and China’s mining ban

Professor Yang Wang thinks Hong Kong’s crypto policies are too slow and they need to step up their game to lead in blockchain technology.

He believes banning crypto mining in China is a mistake and suggests involving state-owned enterprises instead.

Professor Yang Wang from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) recently gave a talk at the HashKey New Horizons event. He had some pretty strong opinions about Hong Kong’s crypto policies and China’s mining ban.

Wang’s crypto journey started back in 2012. A former student of his introduced him to Bitcoin, but Wang thought it was a scam. When the same student pushed him again in 2014, he still wasn’t convinced.

It wasn’t until they approached Xiao Feng that he realized he had missed some big opportunities.
