This collaboration marks HashKey Exchange’s official entry into Southeast Asia and advances the development of compliant digital asset infrastructure between Hong Kong and the Philippines, offering users in both regions more accessible financial services.
The partnership aims to provide seamless, round-the-clock, fully regulated digital asset services for users in the Philippines and Hong Kong.

The collaboration also lays the groundwork for institutional-grade digital asset services in Southeast Asia. HashKey Exchange will share its compliance operations and liquidity management expertise with partners to support financial innovation in the region. Randall Chan emphasized: “As regulatory frameworks across Asia and globally become clearer, we are expanding a secure, compliant, and interoperable framework to enable sustainable financial innovation.”
