On August 28, 2025, during the Bitcoin Asia event in Hong Kong, Gate will co-host the "Hong Kong PayFi Night" with First Digital, a Hong Kong-based stablecoin issuer. The event will focus on Hong Kong's latest regulatory regime and market opportunities, and delve into the industry's development in the era of stablecoins and RWAs.

Through this conversation, Gate not only demonstrated its long-term layout and in-depth thinking on the direction of PayFi, but also once again released its firm determination to promote the integration of payment and encryption.

At the same time, Gate will also be invited to attend the "Hong Kong Stablecoin Summit Forum" hosted by Google Cloud on August 29. Edwin Cheung will be a guest and share the "Global Dialogue on Stablecoins from Technology to Policy" with senior industry practitioners and university professors.

On August 30th, Gate will also participate in the "Hong Kong Cross-border Payment Closed-Door Summit Forum" hosted by GreenPay and MetaEra.

As a key player in the industry, Gate will have in-depth exchanges with core executives in the payment and fintech fields, focusing on the new opportunities and challenges brought about by payment innovation, compliance supervision, and international policy changes.

Both forums will focus on stablecoin innovation, cross-border payment trends, regulatory compliance, and emerging technologies, highlighting the convergence and transformation of payments and fintech. Gate will collaborate with industry partners to explore how blockchain and digitalization can reshape the global payments landscape and create new opportunities for collaboration.
