Hong Kong Legislative Council Member Johnny Ng has announced plans to collaborate with various stakeholders to assess the feasibility and potential benefits of incorporating Bitcoin into the special administrative region’s financial reserves.
In a recent post on X, Ng&nbsp;emphasized the increasing global recognition of Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>), often dubbed “digital gold” due to its perceived value and potential as a hedge against inflation. 
He highlighted the importance of considering Bitcoin&nbsp;in strategic fiscal reserves, suggesting that its inclusion could benefit Hong Kong’s economic framework under the right regulatory conditions.

Wu's comments come when Bitcoin and Web3 technologies are gaining traction worldwide. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin, along with its limited supply, has positioned it as a valuable asset in the eyes of many investors.

Ng pointed out that the global awareness of Bitcoin is increasing, making it a crucial element in the discourse on digital assets and their integration into traditional financial systems. The legislator’s initiative is part of a broader effort to accelerate the development of the Web3 ecosystem in Hong Kong.

Web3 represents the next generation of internet technologies, focused on decentralization, blockchain and peer-to-peer interactions. Ng believes that Hong Kong is at a pivotal stage in regulatory compliance and industry development, which could pave the way for a more open and innovative market environment.

Ng acknowledged in his proposal that thorough research and compliance with existing regulations are essential to ensure the strategic and secure integration of Bitcoin into Hong Kong’s fiscal reserves. 
His proposal came in response to United States Republican Party presidential nominee and former President&nbsp;<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/trump-implement-bitcoin-strategic-reserve-elected-president">Donald Trump’s speech</a> at the Bitcoin 2024 conference on July 27.
Beyond Bitcoin, Ng’s vision for Hong Kong includes a robust and dynamic Web3 ecosystem. He urged the government to focus on technological innovation and build a supportive environment for Web3 development. 
Ng’s advocacy is timely, as Hong Kong has made <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/za-bank-stablecoin-reserve-services-hong-kong">strides in digital finance and blockchain adoption</a>. The region’s regulatory framework is evolving to accommodate these new technologies, aiming to balance innovation and security.
