HashKey Lists AVAX and LINK

Retail investors in Hong Kong can now choose from a wider range of cryptocurrency options as the Avalanche and Chainlink coins have been approved for listing on Hashkey, one of the two fully licensed exchanges in the jurisdiction.

Previously, retail offerings in Hong Kong were limited to only Bitcoin and Ether. However, professional investors, who have a portfolio worth at least 8 million Hong Kong dollars or are representatives of financial institutions, have access to a larger selection of cryptocurrencies.

Retail investors can now trade AVAX and LINK against the US dollar on Hashkey. According to the CEO of Hashkey, Livio Weng, these coins were selected for listing due to their lack of legal conflicts, unlike many other cryptocurrencies with larger market caps.
