On April 10, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) issued the first stablecoin issuer licenses to Anchor Financial Technology and HSBC. The HKMA has emphasized that the licensing process has high standards, primarily considering two aspects during approval: (1) whether the applicant has sufficient risk management capabilities and experience, and complies with relevant regulations in Hong Kong and other regions; (2) whether the applicant can propose specific application scenarios and feasible business plans and development strategies. Among the 36 applications, Anchor and HSBC demonstrated their ability to manage risks prudently and provided concrete application scenarios and future development plans, thus receiving the licenses. Both licensed issuers have banking backgrounds and have participated in HKMA's experimental projects related to central bank digital currencies (CBDC) and tokenized deposits, giving them a deeper understanding of the functionalities and application scenarios of various digital currencies, which is beneficial for exploring the possibilities of 'future payments.' One of the issuers has formed a consortium with local telecommunications, payment, and digital asset companies, allowing compliant stablecoins to achieve synergistic effects.

On April 10, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced that the Financial Commissioner has granted stablecoin issuer licenses to two institutions—Diginex Financial Technology Limited (a company formed by Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong), Hong Kong Telecommunications, and Anxin Group) and HSBC. This marks a new phase in the implementation of Hong Kong's stablecoin regulatory framework. Licensed issuers must complete relevant preparations, including technology platform and system testing, risk management measures, and human resource arrangements, before officially launching their compliant stablecoins. Based on the current business plans of the two institutions, we expect regulated stablecoins in Hong Kong to be gradually launched from mid to late this year.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, the global authoritative AI evaluation platform LMArena (with millions of users participating in blind tests) updated its Code Arena rankings today. GLM-5.1 topped the list as the number one open-source model globally and ranked third among all models worldwide. GLM-5.1 not only inherits the open-source SOTA coding capabilities of its predecessor but also achieves breakthroughs in long-horizon tasks, including: 1. Building a Linux desktop from scratch in 8 hours; 2. Breaking the optimization bottleneck of vector databases in 655 iterations; 3. Optimizing real machine learning model loads through 1000 rounds of tool calls. Notably, under the same evaluation criteria as the METR rankings, GLM-5.1 is the only open-source model to achieve sustained operation at the 8-hour level, and it is one of the few models globally, alongside Claude Opus 4.6, that possesses this capability.
