Cross-border collaboration is extremely important in the age of blockchain-based finance and digital assets. This past week I was fortunate to meet with the FinTech delegation from 🇯🇵 Japan (and CCI partner Japan Cryptoasset Business Association (JCBA)), and members of the 🇸🇦 Saudi Central Bank – SAMA, through invitations from Invest Hong Kong and Financial Services Development Council. Jurisdictions across 🌏 Asia and the 🌍 Middle East have been studying the massive growth in adoption of digital assets, and the intersection between TradFi and Web3, not to mention the acceleration of crypto policies coming from the current 🇺🇸 US administration. Sitting on the sidelines are no longer an option, and only through collaboration can each jurisdiction stay relevant while being in healthy competition. Not surprisingly ⚖️ 🪙 stablecoin was the main topic of discussion, with each jurisdiction having their unique views on regulatory frameworks, compliance requirements and real economic benefits. Really glad to hear their point of views and hopefully shared some observations I've seen from my ecosystem engagements across the regions. #blockchain #stablecoin #crypto #policy #digitalasset #crossborder #digitalfinance #geniusact IDA Crypto Council for Innovation Stablecoin Standard Web3 Harbour Keisuke Kimura Shindo Hideto Takeshi Kito Keisuke Hatsuzawa Seihaku Yoshida Takeo Shimotsu Makoto Shibata Turky A.
