China Telecom and Conflux Network To Pilot Blockchain Enabled SIM Card in Hong Kong

Today China Telecom and Conflux Network announce a partnership to bring Blockchain SIM cards (BSIM) to market. The entry-level Web3 product will be the largest blockchain hardware product ever seen globally, involving the most users and applications. China Telecom will launch the first BSIM pilot program in Hong Kong later this year. This will likely be followed by pilots in key mainland China locations such as Shanghai.

BSIM will dramatically lower the barrier to entry to Web3 for China Telecom’s 390+ million mobile phone subscribers, while making transactions faster and more secure. By making telecom users’ personal digital assets more secure, the goal is to make mobile phones more secure.

The BSIM card integrates Conflux’s Tree-graph, dual proof of stake and proof of work technology, enabling the highest system performance for any blockchain in the world. It uses the hardware security advantages of SIM cards to protect users’ private keys, which is a secure and convenient Web3 entry solution.

  • Hong Kong Investment Commission: Virtual asset spot ETFs can be bought and sold through banks

    Hong Kong investors and the Financial Education Committee have stated that the investment scope of spot virtual asset ETFs is limited to virtual assets (currently limited to Bitcoin and Ethereum) provided to the Hong Kong public for buying and selling on virtual asset trading platforms holding China Securities Regulatory Commission licenses. Trading counterparties must buy and sell virtual assets through licensed virtual asset trading platforms to reduce counterparty risks. Asset custody must be entrusted to designated institutions regulated in Hong Kong, such as licensed virtual asset trading platforms, banks, or their subsidiaries registered in Hong Kong, to reduce custody risks. Investors can buy and sell virtual asset spot ETFs through securities firms or banks. Some virtual asset spot ETFs also provide non-listed fund unit categories, which operate similarly to non-listed funds. Investors can apply for and redeem units through securities firms or banks.

  • Hong Kong Customs cracked a HK$1.8 billion money laundering case involving a virtual currency trading platform

    Hong Kong Customs has reported a successful crackdown on a major money laundering case, involving a staggering HKD 1.8 billion. According to preliminary investigations, a criminal group consisting of three individuals processed over 1,000 suspicious transactions between June 2021 and July 2022 through the establishment of multiple shell companies and bank accounts, including a significant amount of suspicious fund transfers from virtual currency trading platforms. This indicates that the criminals tried to launder their illegal proceeds by taking advantage of the anonymity of virtual currencies. Currently, Customs has arrested three key members of the criminal group, seized the assets of the involved companies, and confiscated a large number of criminal tools, including mobile phones, company seals, and bank cards. The case is still under further investigation, and more suspects may be arrested. This case once again sounds the alarm, reminding the virtual currency industry to increase vigilance and strictly comply with anti-money laundering regulations.

    Backup your life with the blockchain

    Growing up my family was always moving homes. I've never had somewhere I could really call my own. Like many other people whose families have rented home to home their entire lives, you soon realise how much of a hassle it is to have a lot of belongings. It's why I prefer to throw away a lot of my keepsakes or momentos and while it's nice to be able to look back at something that reminds you of a former time in your life. It soon starts getting impractical. There's no possible way you can hold on to every keepsake you accumulate in your life. You might have visions of sharing some of your favourite memories with your grandkids but most of the time those old drawings, trophies, shirts or whatever other item you find valuable soon get eaten away by the cruel nature of time.

Builders knew that whatever they made, they owned — a simple promise that established the right incentives for the technology to flourish. But now, the internet is stagnating and it’s harder than ever for new apps to break through.
