HKMA Warns Against Fake HKDAP and HSBC Tokens
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) announced that fake tokens are circulating in the market before the new stablecoin regulation takes effect. Tokens bearing HKDAP and HSBC symbols are in circulation, but they are not affiliated with licensed issuers. HKMA confirmed that the applicants mentioned in press materials have not yet issued stablecoins. This early threat has warned investors in Hong Kong’s crypto ecosystem against fraud.
HKMA granted the first licenses to the consortium led by HSBC and Standard Chartered under the Stablecoins Ordinance that took effect in August 2025. This group, selected from 36 applications, is proceeding with limited access similar to traditional banknote printing authority. Products may launch during Fintech Week in November 2025. HKMA recommends relying on official channels.
