HashKey’s HSK Token to Go Live for Trading, Deposits Begin November 7

The launch of HashKey’s native token, HSK, has been announced by the Hong Kong-based digital asset exchange. Deposits will be accepted starting on November 7, and HSK/USDT spot trading will formally start on November 26. The coin, which was created to improve HashKey’s ecosystem, is anticipated to be essential to all of the platform’s offerings.

HSK: A Token with a Broad Utility Across HashKey’s Platform

According to HashKey, the HSK token will support a variety of functions within the HashKey ecosystem. It will be integral to operations on the HashKey Global Innovation Zone, covering licensed exchanges, asset management, tokenization services, and more. Additionally, HSK will function as the native and gas token on HashKey Chain, the platform’s layer-2 blockchain, making it a crucial part of the company’s infrastructure. Available on the ERC-20 network, HSK aims to strengthen HashKey’s connections between Asia and the broader digital financial landscape.

Managing Director of HashKey Global, Ben El-Baz, expressed confidence in HSK’s role. “HSK is not just a token, but a bridge between Asia and the global financial infrastructure,” El-Baz stated. Following HSK’s launch, HashKey plans to support liquidity and promote ecosystem expansion.

HashKey has started the HSK Genesis Trading Campaign, which will run until November 25 in advance of the token listing. 2.88 million HSK tokens, which are accessible as rewards for early involvement and participation on the platform, will be awarded to campaign participants.

A brief slowdown in the market caused HSK’s launch to be postponed from its original mid-October date. The exchange’s choice to hold off shows that it is focused on positive market conditions to guarantee strong demand and participation.

In November 2023, HashKey unveiled its utility token concept, emphasizing the token’s link to the long-term goals of its contributors and community.
