Hong Kong, Aug. 21, 2025 — HashKey Exchange, Hong Kong’s largest* licensed virtual asset exchange, announced today that it will serve as the virtual asset trading platform for MicroBit Capital Management Company Limited (“MicroBit”), providing trading support for MicroBit Bitcoin Spot ETF (Stock Code: 3430.HK) and MicroBit Ethereum Spot ETF (Stock Code: 3425.HK). Hash Blockchain Limited will act as a sub-custodian for the virtual assets. Both ETFs have officially been listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX: 00388) as of today.
