China Puts a Number on Its Carbon Credit Market — and Four Words on Cross-Border Trading
At a State Council Information Office briefing on 21 October, Vice Minister of Ecology and Environment Li Gao put the voluntary carbon market on the record: 44 projects registered with over 25 million tonnes of reductions, more than 24 million tonnes traded, turnover approaching RMB 2 billion, 18 methodologies published with 3 more imminent and 11 out for comment, and full coverage of key sectors targeted for 2027. He also gave the single most useful number this site has found all year: a 50 MW concentrated solar plant in Qinghai whose crediting-period revenue from CCER sales comes to nearly RMB 100 million. On cross-border trading the language is precise and deliberately modest — study, formulate, rely on the domestic registry, propose an alliance.
The Second Half of Tokenisation: Hong Kong Opens 24/7 Secondary Trading in Tokenised Public Funds
On 26 October 2026 the SFC announced its first authorisation for tokenised funds offered to the public to trade on the secondary market of a licensed virtual asset trading platform. Two tokenised money market funds from China Asset Management (Hong Kong) — the HKD and USD digital money market funds, pairs CAMFF-HKD and CUMFU-USD — began round-the-clock trading through PantherTrade, the Futu-owned licensed platform, with retail investors eligible. The tokens are not new instruments and cannot leave the platform; ownership stays in an off-chain register and transfers are recorded on the venue's ledger. Which makes this precisely the right thing to look at: for the first time in Hong Kong's tokenisation build-out, a tokenised instrument can trade away from its net asset value. That is the difference between a product and a market.
Three Days After "Successfully Issued", Another Agreement: Dragon Rise Signs a Non-Binding RWA Framework — With an Unnamed Partner
On 23 October, Dragon Rise Group Holdings (6829.HK) — the Hong Kong engineering-turned-new-energy company whose battery-swap taxi tokenised note this site examined on 20 October — announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Dragon Rise Investment has signed a non-binding strategic cooperation framework agreement with an unnamed "new energy enterprise" to pursue RWA financing, diversified funding and asset management. Three days earlier, the company had declared the first tranche of its tokenised note "successfully issued". The three hardest follow-up questions from that article — was the HK$30 million first tranche fully subscribed, does the second tranche keep the parent guarantee, and what are the KPIs behind the 6 per cent performance interest — remain unanswered. What arrived instead was another agreement: vaguer, unpriced, and with a counterparty that does not even have a name.
