This exciting development for HashKey has come as the company continues to prepare for the launch of HashKey PRO, a regular cryptocurrency exchange that will be compliant. After the launch, the company will be able to offer its customers a wider range of products, according to Executive President Michel Lee. The company also expects HashKey PRO to contribute greatly to the large-scale adoption of cryptocurrencies and provide investor confidence when compared to over-the-counter crypto trading.
HashKey Group has also received licenses from the Japanese Financial Regulatory Authority (FSA) and the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
