Edith Yeung, co-founder of Race Capital and seed investor in Solana, discusses the emerging role of Hong Kong as a crypto hub. She emphasizes the importance of building liquidity alongside regulatory clarity for attracting investors. Yeung compares Hong Kong's financial energy to New York's, highlighting its deep talent pool from over 150 years of financial history. While acknowledging the U.S. as having the largest crypto market, she points out Asia's higher growth potential, especially in light of its young, crypto-native population. Yeung views China's recent regulatory stance fostered by Hong Kong's developments as promising, despite the country's complex relationship with crypto activities. She believes Solana's growth will continue, bolstered by significant technical advancements and interest from traditional finance players. Looking ahead, Yeung forecasts that by the end of 2025, the U.S. may establish a Bitcoin ETF to further influence global crypto markets, which will be discussed at the upcoming Consensus Hong Kong event.
