 <p class="is-style-lead">On Sep. 6, the Solana Foundation officially announced its partnership with the Crypto Fintech Lab at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) on X.</p> 
 <p>The collaboration aims to offer Solana game courses at the lab, along with financial and technical support for students to gain industry knowledge and practical experience.</p> 
 <p>HKUST is a globally recognized research <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="university" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/university.html">university</a>, boasting a top graduate employment rate in Hong Kong and ranking among the world’s top 30. It’s also known as one of Asia’s fastest-growing financial research institutions.</p>

 <p>In late August, the school gained attention when its vice president, recognized as a prominent figure in Hong Kong’s <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">crypto</a>currency scene, issued a document urging the Hong Kong government to create a stablecoin to compete with USDT.</p> 
 <p>Hong Kong has consistently shown its aspiration to establish itself as a global <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">crypto</a>currency hub, while the United States seems to be adopting a more cautious stance. </p> 
 <p>Alongside the University’s initiatives, the government has granted licenses for Swiss bank SEBA’s branch and HashKey to operate in the city.</p>

 <p>The city was previously a hub for digital assets, hosting the founding of exchanges like FTX and Crypto.com (formerly Monaco). </p> 
 <p>However, it’s only more recently that the city has renewed its focus on reemerging as a center for digital currency innovation.</p>
