Standard Chartered has launched direct spot trading for Bitcoin and Ethereum, positioning itself as a pioneer among traditional banks in offering regulated crypto services to institutional clients. The service allows asset managers, corporations, and large investors to trade actual crypto assets (not derivatives) via FX trading interfaces, with flexible custody options. Initially available during Asian and European hours, the bank may extend to 24/5 access based on demand. Additionally, Standard Chartered plans to introduce crypto NDFs for risk management. This move aligns with its broader digital asset strategy, including EU-regulated custody and stablecoin development. While competitors like JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs remain cautious, Standard Chartered’s CEO affirms that digital assets are here to stay, leveraging early-mover advantage in a growing institutional crypto market.

Shanghai’s state asset regulator convened a study session on stablecoins and blockchain infrastructure, chaired by He Qing of the Shanghai SASAC. The meeting explored applications for state-owned firms in cross-border trade, supply chain management, and asset digitization. While China maintains its crypto ban, the session suggests a shift toward controlled experimentation with blockchain-based financial tools. Observers describe this as ‘tiered experimentation’ rather than crypto liberalization, with stablecoins viewed as sovereign financial instruments. The move aligns with growing demand for stablecoin infrastructure in Asia, as noted by Phoenix Labs CEO Sam MacPherson. Meanwhile, People’s Bank of China governor Pan Gongsheng recently acknowledged stablecoins’ potential but emphasized regulatory challenges. China’s approach combines top-down control with localized testing, reflecting a cautious yet innovative digital asset strategy.

XRP has seen significant growth in 2025, trading at $2.77 after a 24% weekly gain, driven by Bitcoin’s rally and increased investor confidence. Key developments include Ripple’s application for a U.S. banking license and a Federal Reserve Master Account, which could boost institutional adoption.

Asia’s regulatory frameworks for tokenization are gaining global attention, with Japan and Hong Kong leading the charge in real-world asset (RWA) adoption. According to Maarten Henskens of Startale Group, Western institutions are expanding into the Asia-Pacific region not just to follow capital but to engage in innovation. Japan’s deliberate and forward-looking regulations, exemplified by MUFG’s security token infrastructure, are fostering institutional trust. Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s complementary approach is further solidifying Asia’s position as a tokenization hub. This regulatory clarity is attracting sidelined capital, positioning Asia at the forefront of financial innovation.

This integration aims to enhance real-time global payments and interoperability between banks, digital wallets, and public blockchains. Ant, which processed over $1 trillion in transactions last year, sees USDC as a bridge to the broader financial system, while Circle expands its offerings with tools like Circle Gateway and Circle Mint.

Ant Group, the Chinese payments giant behind Alipay, is set to adopt Circle’s USDC stablecoin on its blockchain platform, Bloomberg reports. With 1.6 billion users, Alipay is the world’s largest mobile payments platform. The integration timeline depends on USDC achieving full compliance in the U.S. following the GENIUS Act’s passage.
