HSBC Releases e-HKD+ Pilot Results, Advancing Hong Kong’s Digital Currency Design Exploration
Odaily Planet Daily reported that HSBC has issued an announcement disclosing the completion of its technical testing and public survey under the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s “e-HKD+” project. The bank explored the application of e-HKD in DLT environments, privacy protection, and scalability. HSBC also experimented with issuance mechanisms on Arbitrum, Ethereum, Linea, Polygon, and its own proprietary private chain. The survey revealed that 90% of respondents are concerned about transaction privacy, and one-third are willing to use e-HKD to trade digital assets. HSBC will leverage these findings to promote the real-world adoption of digital currency.
