Hong Kong and Cryptocurrency - The Red Carpet

In late 2022, Hong Kong updated its crypto regulations in a way that signaled a goal of increasing retail access to the asset class. In sharp contrast, nearby Singapore tightened regulations after big losses this year for retail investors. Korea, still dealing with the aftermath of the collapse of the Terra / Luna tokens, is currently focussing on enforcement. And India, somewhat uniquely in the region, is using tax policy to drive behavior.

Bloomberg senior editor for crypto, Sunil Jagtiani, joins this episode to talk about how different Asian countries are approaching crypto regulation in the shadow of the FTX collapse.
