TREE NEWS update: China’s State Council Information Office will hold a press conference at 3 p.m. on Monday, October 19, to brief on efforts to accelerate technology-driven commerce. Assistant Minister of Commerce Yuan Xiaoming and officials from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism will present the plans and take questions from reporters.
China to Hold Oct 19 Briefing on Advancing Tech-Driven Commerce
Cross-ministry participation signals that the technology-commerce push is being framed as an industrial and cultural policy matter, not just a trade one. For crypto and RWA markets, the presence of the culture and tourism ministry is the detail worth noting, since digital collectibles and cultural asset tokenization sit at that intersection. The briefing itself is unlikely to address digital assets directly; whether the follow-up implementation documents touch on blockchain-based commerce infrastructure is the open question.
