Although the Titan fund does not focus exclusively on Hong Kong-based projects, it aims to invest in the best companies worldwide.&nbsp;
According to Baumann, co-founder of the Titan Fund, if Hong Kong continues to embrace web3, more entrepreneurs in the crypto industry will emerge, and the fund will be ready to invest in their projects.&nbsp;
Hong Kong is becoming one of the world’s leading&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://crypto.news/how-hong-kong-became-the-new-hub-for-cryptocurrencies/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto hubs</a>, with the government working with InvestHK, Hong Kong’s department, to attract foreign investment in the industry.&nbsp;
In June 2023, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) began accepting applications for crypto trading platform licenses.
