At Hong Kong FinTech Week 2025, Standard Chartered's CEO Bill Winters predicted that nearly all global transactions will soon settle on blockchain ledgers. The bank is leading this shift by launching a Hong Kong dollar stablecoin and expanding digital asset services, benefiting from Hong Kong's supportive crypto regulatory framework. This move, echoed by other industry leaders, could transform cross-border transactions through near-instantaneous settlements.
