According to Odaily Planet Daily, Tiger Brokers was approved to launch virtual asset trading services to retail investors in Hong Kong in mid-June this year. Currently, Tiger Brokers allows users to trade 18 cryptocurrencies, stocks, futures, U.S. Treasuries, and the newly launched Bitcoin ETF in Hong Kong. Its goal is to provide retail investors with the same diversified trading options as professional clients. Tiger Brokers will continue to monitor the cryptocurrency market, looking for promising new coins that meet the standards, and plans to expand cryptocurrency products in the future, subject to regulatory approval and market conditions. Kelvin Liu, vice president of engineering and head of cryptocurrency, said that Tiger Brokers has observed a surge in demand for virtual assets among global investors, especially in Hong Kong. The timing of the approval of the cryptocurrency ETF by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has created an excellent opportunity for Tiger Brokers to launch its cryptocurrency products.
