Zhu Haokang, head of digital asset management and family wealth management at Huaxia Fund (Hong Kong), stated that to encourage mainland enterprises with financing needs to finance in the Web3.0 industry through Hong Kong's compliant tokenized securities laws and virtual asset trading platforms, Hong Kong can take the following measures: First, Hong Kong should leverage its advantages as an international financial center and actively improve the legal and regulatory framework for tokenized securities.

13. Analysis from the Shendu Blockchain livestream indicated that Bitcoin at $98,000 could be a turning point, with bullish sentiment softening, and risk control is necessary.
Click to enter the livestream: https://meeting.tencent.com/p/5551765098 The recent rebound of Bitcoin is indeed impressive. It rebounded from 92,000 to 98,000, leading many to believe it would continue to challenge 110,000. However, from the trading volume, it is evident that this wave of volume is clearly insufficient, so I still watch for a rebound to break the previous low. Upon careful consideration, a rebound of a few thousand points is actually normal. The weekly level still allows for the top of the box. If there are no favorable factors in the future, I personally feel it will quickly retrace to 80,000. Therefore, the upper target is 99,500, and the lower target is around 89,000, which are the top and bottom of the box operation. The possibility of further downward break is very high. Currently, the bulls have become weak, hovering around 98,000. Today, the possibility of breaking 97,500 is very high. Ethereum appears slightly stronger in this wave. Many people are looking above 4,000. However, I personally feel that 3,800 is already the limit. In terms of daily levels, I still maintain a bearish outlook. It is not recommended to chase high positions; it is advisable to lay out high short positions for long-term profits, looking towards around 2,800. Operation advice: Bitcoin short: enter at 99,200 to 500, stop-loss at 99,800, target 93,200. Ethereum short: enter at 3,680, stop-loss at 3,720, target 3,180.
