  Hong Kong has implemented a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital currency exchanges. The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) is responsible for overseeing and regulating these exchanges. They require exchanges to obtain a license and comply with strict anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) procedures. This ensures that exchanges operate in a transparent and secure manner, protecting investors and preventing illegal activities.
