TREE NEWS update: Hong Kong’s government has reiterated that it will submit an amendment to its crypto asset licensing bill before the end of 2026. The commitment was restated in a roundup of market developments that also included Multicoin Capital naming HYPE as its largest holding, Pump.fun holding $2.8 billion on-chain of which $2.19 billion is PUMP tokens, and Fortitude securing priority allocation of Bitmain’s next-generation Zcash miners in a purchase that could reach $100 million.
Hong Kong Reaffirms Crypto Licensing Bill Amendment by End-2026
AI take
Hong Kong's restated timeline matters less for its novelty than for what it signals: a major Asian jurisdiction is still pacing its licensing regime rather than accelerating it, even as global peers move. The pairing with items like Multicoin's HYPE position and Fortitude's Zcash miner allocation is incidental, not thematic — this is a policy signal, not a market one. The open question is whether the amendment, when it lands, tightens or broadens the current licensing perimeter.
