BlockBeats News, April 10th, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority will announce the first batch of stablecoin licenses at 5 p.m. on April 10th, and then the licensed stablecoin issuers will meet with the media.

Earlier, the Hong Kong MA completed the final review of the first batch of applications in mid-March 2026, and is currently in the preparation stage for official announcement. The MA received a total of 36 applications, and plans to issue 2 to 3 licenses in the first batch, with strict regulatory standards.

He also emphasized: "The number of licenses issued in the first batch will definitely not be large, aiming for prudence." (Daily Economic News)
