🚨 BREAKING: Major Asian Stock Exchanges Push Back Against Crypto Treasuries

Leading stock exchanges in Asia are intensifying scrutiny over companies adopting cryptocurrency holdings as part of their treasury strategies. Bloomberg reports that Hong Kong Exchanges have blocked at least five companies from implementing Bitcoin treasury strategies. Similar resistance is observed in India and Australia, where exchange operators are pushing back against crypto hoarding vehicles masquerading as listed companies.

This move marks a significant shift in the region's approach to cryptocurrency integration within traditional financial markets. The resistance from major exchanges could impact the adoption of crypto assets by publicly listed companies and may influence future regulatory developments in the region.

Thailand expands crypto ETFs and accelerates G-Token digital bonds

📌 The Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand is drafting rules to broaden crypto ETFs beyond Bitcoin, considering baskets that include Ethereum, Solana, and select altcoins to diversify investor options, retain domestic demand, and reduce reliance on offshore platforms.

🔎 The rollout is guided toward as early as early-2026, subject to final rulemaking and investor-eligibility scope; the aim is to provide supervised access to digital assets instead of capital drifting to hard-to-police offshore services.

💡 The market already hosts a Bitcoin ETF structured as a fund-of-funds for institutions and high-net-worth investors since June 2024, while an Ethereum-tracking product from MFC appeared in September 2025 but is not open to retail; domestic investors should watch the prospectus, basket composition, and participation criteria to gauge allocation readiness.

🧩 In parallel, the government is advancing G-Token digital government bonds with an initial size around 5 billion baht, targeting low minimum tickets and transparent trading on licensed platforms; suitability still depends on issuance schedules, secondary-market mechanics, and the volatility backdrop as the regulatory framework is finalized.

#AltcoinETFsPostponed
The hashtag #AltcoinETFsPostponed is making waves as the SEC delays decisions on several proposed ETFs based on popular altcoins. Applications tied to assets like XRP, Solana, and Litecoin have been pushed back, with the next review dates expected later in 2025. While some see these delays as a setback, analysts believe they are part of the standard regulatory process—similar to what happened with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs before they were approved. Many in the crypto space remain optimistic that altcoin ETFs will eventually gain approval and open the door for broader market adoption.

SEC Pushes Back on Ripple’s Sealing Motion — Legal Tensions Rise

The SEC has filed a strong objection to Ripple’s motion to seal details related to its financials and institutional sales. The agency argues that the information is of public importance and that Ripple’s redactions are overly broad and legally unsupported.

Key Issues at Play:

Public Interest vs. Competitive Risk: The SEC emphasizes transparency, saying Ripple’s operations are central to regulatory scrutiny. Ripple counters that disclosure could harm its competitive position.

Wider Implications: This decision could influence how much transparency crypto firms are required to provide in future enforcement actions.

What Comes Next:
Judge Analisa Torres will now decide whether Ripple can keep the documents sealed or must disclose them. A decision is expected soon and could shape both XRP’s regulatory path and broader industry precedent.

For XRP Holders & Market Watchers:

Unsealing of documents may impact market sentiment.

Final penalty decision is pending (SEC initially sought $2B; expectations now under $10M).
