Hong Kong cryptocurrency exchange HKVAEX has not applied for a virtual asset trading platform license with Hong Kong\u2019s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), a spokesperson for HKVAEX has said.<\/p>\n
Amid multiple reports erroneously suggesting that HKVAEX has applied for an SFC license, the HKVAEX representative claimed the crypto exchange is yet to submit an application.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are still preparing for the application at the moment,\u201d the HKVAEX representative told Cointelegraph on Nov. 27. The spokesperson stressed that HKVAEX should not be confused with VAEXC, which applied for a crypto license in Hong Kong on Oct. 25, according to SFC data.<\/p>\n
\u201cVAEXC is another applicant, and they have nothing to do with us,\u201d the HKVAEX representative said, adding that the firm is unrelated to HKVAEX.<\/p>\n
