Abstract
The blockchain industry is undergoing tremendous development and expansion, with new applications and technology constantly appearing. In Hong Kong, blockchain-based industries and activities, such as cryptocurrencies, are gaining popularity and attention. As these industries grow, they must be governed in a manner that fosters competition and protects consumers. Competition law in Hong Kong is governed by the Competition Ordinance, which was implemented in 2015. This blogpost will examine the role of competition law in regulating Hong Kong's blockchain-based industries and activities, as well as current developments and case studies in this field. By examining the intersection of competition law and blockchain in Hong Kong, this blog post can better comprehend the potential and obstacles confronting this quickly expanding industry.
