证券及期货事务监察委员会(证监会)今天就适用于虚拟资产交易平台营运者的建议规定展开咨询。

根据将于 2023 年 6 月 1 日生效的新发牌制度(注 1 ),所有在香港经营业务或向香港投资者积极进行推广的中央虚拟资产交易平台,将需获证监会发牌。

证监会就虚拟资产交易平台所建议的监管规定乃建基于《证券及期货条例》下现行制度中的监管规定(注 2 ),并与适用于持牌证券经纪商及自动化交易场所的有关规定相若(注 3 )。证监会亦藉此机会,建议对现行制度中的某些规定作出修改。

在是次谘询中,证监会特别就以下事项征询市场意见:应否准许持牌平台营运者向零售投资者提供服务;如准许的话,除了所建议一系列妥善的投资者保障措施(包括在与客户建立业务关系时确保合适性和代币纳入(注 4 )的有关规定)外,还应实行哪些措施。

证监会行政总裁梁凤仪女士表示:“一如我们自 2018 年以来所秉持的理念,本会依照“相同业务、相同风险、相同规则”的原则,就虚拟资产交易平台监管建议多项妥善的投资者保障措施(注 5 )。鉴于环球虚拟资产市场近期动荡不稳,加上部分主要的加密货币交易平台相继倒闭,各地监管机构达致了明确共识,认为需要对虚拟资产领域进行监管,以确保充分保障投资者,并有效管理主要风险。”

计划申领牌照的虚拟资产交易平台(包括原有平台(注 6 ))的营运者应开始检视及修改有关系统及监控措施,为新制度作好准备。至于无意申领牌照的营运者,则应着手预备以有序方式结束其于香港的业务。

证监会拟在其网站上发布数份名单,向公众列出各虚拟资产交易平台的监管状况,并将继续与投资者及理财教育委员会合作,以加强对香港大众的投资者教育工作。

本会欢迎有意者于 2023 年 3 月 31 日或之前,透过证监会网站(www.sfc.hk),或以电邮(VATP-consultation@sfc.hk)、邮寄或传真(( 852) 2293 4004 ),向证监会提交意见。

备注:

根据《 2022 年打击洗钱及恐怖分子资金筹集(修订)条例》,任何人如经营提供虚拟资产服务的业务(即经营虚拟资产交易所)或显示自己经营该业务,便须向证监会申领牌照。

证监会在 2019 年就提供至少一种证券型代币的交易服务的中央虚拟资产交易平台引入了监管框架。请参阅证监会在 2019 年 11 月 6 日发出的《立场书:监管虚拟资产交易平台》。

有关规定涵盖妥善保管资产、认识你的客户、利益冲突、网络保安、会计及审计、风险管理、打击洗钱/恐怖分子资金筹集,以及预防市场失当行为等范畴。

除了有关在与客户建立业务关系时确保合适性和代币纳入的规定外,其他的主要建议关乎代币的尽职审查、管治和披露。

证监会早于 2018 年起已认为,虚拟资产活动所涉及的风险并不限于洗钱,还包括投资者保障方面的隐忧。请参阅证监会在 2018 年 11 月 1 日发出的《有关针对虚拟资产投资组合的管理公司、基金分销商及交易平台营运者的监管框架的声明》。

虚拟资产交易平台营运者如在 2023 年 6 月 1 日前于香港设有具意义且实质的业务,便会被视为“原有”平台。

Only 153 Venture Capital Firms Invested in July: Is the Crypto VC Industry Experiencing a 'Mass Extinction'?

In July 2026, only 153 unique venture capital firms participated in disclosed crypto funding rounds, marking the lowest monthly count since November 2020. This figure represents an 87% decline from the peak of 1,177 firms in 2022. Overall, the first seven months of 2026 saw crypto projects raise approximately $11.78 billion across 481 rounds. This crypto VC contraction contrasts sharply with the broader venture capital landscape, where global VC investment reached a record $560.4 billion in H1 2026, heavily fueled by major AI company financings. This shift in capital allocation has drawn funds away from the crypto sector. Within crypto, funding is highly concentrated. Trading platforms, prediction markets, and payment sectors absorbed 53% of the total capital. While early-stage deals remain frequent, the largest sums flow to a few late-stage rounds and mergers & acquisitions, which surged to $7.23 billion in Q2 2026. The market is consolidating around top funds like a16z crypto and Dragonfly, which successfully raised new multi-billion dollar funds, while many smaller firms have retreated. Analysts describe this as a "great extinction" for crypto VCs, where capital is becoming more selective, favoring proven business models and assets over early-stage speculation. This raises the bar for project quality, funding efficiency, and viable exit paths.

Strategy's Loss in the Second Quarter Reaches $8.22 Billion Amid Bitcoin Decline

Strategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, reported a net loss of $8.22 billion for the second quarter. This loss was primarily driven by an $8.32 billion unrealized loss on its Bitcoin holdings due to a decline in the asset's price during the period. Despite these paper losses, the company increased its Bitcoin holdings to 843,775 BTC, a 25% growth since the start of the year. As part of a new monetization strategy, Strategy sold approximately $218.4 million worth of Bitcoin, mainly to fund dividends for preferred shareholders, with $216 million of that sold after Q2 ended. The company also built a $3.75 billion cash reserve, which it claims is sufficient to cover over two years of dividend and interest payments, aiming to insulate itself from Bitcoin's volatility while meeting obligations. Following the earnings release, Strategy's stock (MSTR) rose 4.7% in regular trading but corrected slightly after-hours. This pattern reflects how the company's accounting results are heavily tied to Bitcoin's price swings, even as its long-term strategy remains unchanged. The report indicates that Strategy is maintaining its core strategy of accumulating Bitcoin while building a financial buffer. This quarterly loss follows a recognizable pattern, with the company posting significant unrealized losses in previous quarters (e.g., $12.4 billion in Q4 2025 and ~$12.5 billion in Q1 2026) due to fair-value accounting. A key technical shift is its new monetization program, which introduces periodic selling pressure on the market, transitioning Strategy from a pure accumulator to a participant that occasionally adds supply. A critical question remains: how long can the cash reserve cover dividend obligations if a Bitcoin price downturn persists beyond two years?

Will Terrorist Durov Ban Russian Officials?

Telegram founder Pavel Durov publicly reacted to being labeled a "terrorist" by Russian authorities, stating the designation came after he refused demands for mass surveillance and censorship on the platform. In a Telegram post, he highlighted that this status formally bans him from "publishing information online." Durov concluded with a statement widely circulated: Russian officials "clearly don't understand who can ban whom on the internet." This remark suggests Durov could potentially restrict official Russian government and officials' channels on Telegram, which continue to operate on the platform despite its formal blocking in Russia. The situation parallels previous, slow-moving state directives, like switching officials to domestic cars, contrasted with the current push to migrate all government communication to the Russian-made messenger MAX by 2030. However, reports indicate many officials still use Telegram via workarounds, fearing surveillance on MAX, while alternatives like BiP and KakaoTalk recently became inaccessible in Russia without a VPN. Durov has not specified any immediate actions against state channels. His statement is an initial response, with further developments depending on the authorities' reaction. The dynamic differs from 2020 when Russian regulators lifted a block on Telegram; now, Durov implies control from within the platform itself over the official accounts that persisted through that earlier blockade.

DeepSeek V4 Official Version Arrives, New Capabilities Emerge, Value-for-Money King Enters the Fray

On July 31st, DeepSeek officially launched the public API beta for its DeepSeek-V4-Flash model. A key highlight is its performance on multiple Agent benchmark tests, reportedly nearing or even surpassing the level of the V4-Pro preview version from three months ago. Notably, the Flash model achieves this with significantly smaller scale (130B active parameters vs. Pro's 490B), suggesting that post-training optimization and data quality may be as crucial as raw model size. DeepSeek emphasized that the V4-Flash-0731 uses the same model architecture and size as its preview version, with improvements attributed solely to "re-trained post-training." The update also marks the official debut of DeepSeek's self-developed Agent framework, "Harness." The move signals DeepSeek's strategic push to position its cost-effective Flash model as a competitive base for Agent applications—scenarios requiring autonomous planning, tool usage, and complex task execution—where inference speed and cost are critical. By natively supporting OpenAI's Responses API format and adapting for code-generation scenarios, DeepSeek aims not just to be a cheaper alternative but to establish its own ecosystem in the Agent era. This release follows DeepSeek's record-breaking ~$50 billion fundraising round roughly two months prior, underscoring market confidence in its technology and commercialization prospects. The company is reportedly preparing for another funding round at a valuation of approximately $71 billion. The Flash model's advancement represents a step in fulfilling the high expectations that come with this valuation, setting the stage for the impending release of the V4-Pro official version and intensifying competition in the global Agent landscape.
