Earlier this month, Hong Kong made a significant move by approving a range of spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Today marks the official debut of six such ETFs on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

The Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd. (HKEX) has listed six spot BTC and ETH ETFs, marking a notable step forward in the financial arena. Among these are the Harvest Bitcoin Spot ETF (3439: HK) and Harvest Ether Spot ETF (3179: HK), Bosera HashKey Bitcoin ETF (3008: HK), Bosera HashKey Ether ETF (3009: HK), ChinaAMC Bitcoin ETF (3042: HK), and ChinaAMC Ether ETF (3046: HK).

Here’s all about this move and its implications.

Market Activity in Focus

Market data from HKEX reveals that the morning session saw brisk trading activity, with the six spot BTC and ETH ETFs in Hong Kong totaling a trading volume of around HK$49.4 million, equivalent to approximately $6.3 million.

The China Asset Management’s ChinaAMC Bitcoin ETF took the lead with a trading volume of about HK$22.97M. Following closely, the ChinaAMC Ether ETF recorded a significant volume of approximately HK$10.47 million.

The Harvest Bitcoin Spot ETF saw a trading volume of around HK$8.11 million, with its spot ether ETF not far behind at about HK$2.18 million. Similarly, the Bosera HashKey Bitcoin ETF recorded a volume of about HK$3.59 million, while its spot ether ETF saw a volume of HK$1.53 million during Tuesday’s morning session.

Global Demand Sees a Surge
