    However, Hong Kong's approach to 
Bitcoin ETFs is geared towards in-kind creation, meaning that investors will deposit Bitcoin and receive shares in the ETF in return.

    This innovative approach presents a unique opportunity for the market, as it allows for direct exposure to Bitcoin without the need for cash transactions.

    Hong Kong is actively pursuing the development of a 
Bitcoin ETF that differs significantly from its US counterpart.

    In the United States, Bitcoin ETFs operate on a cash-only basis, where investors deposit cash and receive shares in the ETF, with the underlying asset being Bitcoin.
