HashKey Group has officially launched HashKey Global, its new internationally licensed cryptocurrency exchange, marking the beginning of a "dual-flagship" era for the company. This milestone underscores HashKey’s strategic expansion beyond Hong Kong and reinforces its commitment to building a globally compliant digital asset ecosystem.
HashKey Global is now live, operating under a comprehensive Digital Asset Investor Protection Regime license issued by Bermuda — one of the world’s leading offshore financial and reinsurance hubs. The license permits HashKey Global to offer regulated virtual asset trading services, including LaunchPad, derivatives, and leveraged trading, to institutional and retail clients worldwide.
Currently, the platform supports spot trading for 21 major cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC. Perpetual contracts are expected to roll out in the coming weeks, further expanding its product suite.

A Global Strategy Rooted in Compliance
Following its success in Hong Kong, HashKey Group is now exporting its proven "compliance-first" financial management model to international markets. The launch of HashKey Global represents a core component of its broader vision: to build a global matrix of independently operated, licensed exchanges across multiple jurisdictions.
This expansion reflects HashKey Group’s ambition to become the world’s largest cluster of licensed crypto exchanges within the next five years — surpassing all existing compliant platforms in scale and reach.
Livio Weng, Chief Operating Officer at HashKey Group, emphasized:
“The Bermuda license marks another regulatory endorsement from a respected jurisdiction, following our approvals in Japan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. ‘Rooted in Hong Kong, licensed globally’ — this is our long-term mission. As we move forward, we will continue expanding into regions like the Middle East and Europe.”
He added:
“From a local Hong Kong exchange to a global player, we’ve entered the dual-flagship era. Our global strategy is an extension of Hong Kong’s successful Web3 compliance framework. If this model succeeds internationally, it won’t just be HashKey’s victory — it will be a shared achievement for everyone contributing to Hong Kong’s growing Web3 ecosystem.”
Secure, Compliant, and User-Centric Trading Experience
HashKey Global inherits the robust compliance, security, and auditing infrastructure established by HashKey Exchange. It implements cold-hot wallet separation, institutional-grade custody, asset insurance, and regular third-party audits to ensure maximum protection for user funds.
Ben El-Baz, Managing Director of HashKey Global, commented on the partnership with the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA):
“We’re proud to collaborate with the BMA — a highly respected regulator known for transparency and cooperation. Their guidance ensures that HashKey Global operates at the highest standards in digital asset trading. Together, we’re building a trusted, secure, and fully compliant global platform.”

What Is HSK?
HSK is an ERC-20 utility token native to the HashKey ecosystem. It serves as a key driver of platform engagement, incentivizing users, developers, partners, and contributors across all HashKey services — from trading and staking to governance and innovation programs.
As HashKey expands globally, HSK is expected to play an increasingly central role in unlocking benefits such as fee discounts, exclusive access to new listings, and participation in community-driven initiatives.
