Aptos Labs Joins Hong Kong’s e-HKD+ Pilot for Tokenized Funds
Aptos Labs has partnered with Hong Kong’s central bank-backed Project e-HKD+, collaborating with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Hang Seng Bank, and Boston Consulting Group to explore real-world applications of tokenized funds using the experimental digital currency e-HKD. The pilot demonstrated programmable money and tokenized assets on the Aptos blockchain, achieving instant settlements and enhanced cross-border efficiency.
The initiative reportedly doubled fund allocation between Hong Kong and mainland Chinese investors. Aptos Labs highlighted rising demand for tokenized financial products and growing confidence in programmable digital money as a cornerstone for transparent market infrastructure. The firm was the sole public blockchain participant in the HKMA’s e-HKD+ program.
