HashKey Exchange, one of the most trusted licensed virtual asset exchanges globally*, announced today that its virtual asset insurance coverage has reached global first**, marking a milestone breakthrough in virtual asset security protection and further consolidating its position as a leading virtual asset exchange in Asia.
To ensure investor fund safety, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) imposes strict insurance coverage requirements on licensed virtual asset trading platforms. In response, HashKey Exchange strictly follows the SFC requirements and has raised its insurance coverage to industry-leading levels, continuously practicing its core development philosophy of "compliance first" while strengthening its risk control system. Currently, HashKey Exchange has established deep cooperative relationships with multiple international insurance providers like OneDegree, providing comprehensive insurance protection for users' virtual assets.
In addition to providing corresponding insurance coverage, HashKey Exchange is equipped with bank-grade vault management, comprehensively safeguarding client asset security. This proactive compliance and exceeding requirements have resulted in zero asset losses since its establishment, building an outstanding safety reputation in the industry and winning broad market and investor trust and support. Since launching trading services for retail investors in August 2023, the platform's asset management scale has reached 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, with cumulative trading volume exceeding 600 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Terence Pu, Managing Director of HashKey Exchange, stated: "In virtual asset trading, compliance and security are the foundation of user trust. Our global first** insurance coverage is a concrete manifestation of our commitment to user asset security. By leveraging the professional capabilities of the insurance industry to protect user assets, HashKey Exchange has established a strict asset protection mechanism, becoming the preferred platform for virtual asset investors."
Rex Zhang, Chief Operating Officer of OneInfinity by OneDegree, said: "OneInfinity by OneDegree is delighted to collaborate with HashKey Exchange again to jointly safeguard clients' virtual asset security. We are committed to becoming a solid defense in the Web3 ecosystem, setting industry safety benchmarks through innovative insurance solutions and providing users with trustworthy asset protection."
