Hong Kong FinTech Week 2026 highlights convergence of traditional finance and crypto

The upcoming Hong Kong FinTech Week 2026, scheduled for November 2 to 6, will feature discussions on the integration of traditional finance (TradFi) and the digital asset ecosystem. Bybit, a global financial platform, will participate in the summit, with CEO Ben Zhou scheduled to discuss the convergence of TradFi and crypto through AI-driven innovation and asset tokenization.

In a related development in the digital finance sector, the Hong Kong-based crypto application Sumex is expanding its infrastructure through a collaboration with ST0x. This partnership aims to bring tokenized representations of real, listed shares into the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. ST0x provides tokens that represent rights to traditional shares, allowing these assets to be held in wallets and used across various blockchain networks, including Ethereum and Base.
