The international arm of Hong Kongβs HashKey crypto exchange has added Solana (SOL) to its basket of supported assets.
HashKey Global, launched by HashKey Group, is expanding its list of supported assets by adding Solana in a bid to attract more customers around the globe. The exchange announced it will launch spot trading for the SOL/USDT pair on May 24 at 10:00 (UTC). This latest addition expands the list of supported assets on HashKey, which includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Dogecoin (DOGE), among others. However, these trades are not available for users in the U.S. or China. Despite the news, SOL is experiencing a nearly 8% decline in value, currently trading at $163, according to CoinGeckoβs latest data.
HashKey Global was launched in early April to expand its offerings on a global scale. HashKey Group COO Livio Weng mentioned that the local market is limited and highlighted the regulatory challenges in the region that restrict many global users.
Looking ahead, Weng discussed the companyβs plans to secure additional funding to bolster its international business initiatives. While specific details regarding the funding remain undisclosed, reports suggest that HashKey is in talks with potential investors, with projections hinting at a funding round exceeding the $100 million mark achieved in its previous Series A financing.
