Park Seong-jin, head of Samsung Asset Management in Hong Kong, said: “Hong Kong is the only market in Asia where Bitcoin Futures ETFs are listed and traded on the institutional market. It will be a new option for investors who are interested in Bitcoin as a competitive product reflecting their experience in risk management.”
