A wholly owned subsidiary of a Hong Kong Stock Exchange-listed company recently announced an interesting move—issuing compliant carbon coins through a licensed digital asset trading platform in Singapore. This issuance is based on a verified 500,000 tons of VCS carbon credits, releasing a total of 500 million carbon coins into the market. The project employs a regulated RWA (Real-World Asset Tokenization) framework, meaning that traditional carbon assets are now circulating on a compliant track in digital form for the first time. From a market perspective, this is a typical example of a listed company venturing into Web3—retaining the actual value backing of carbon credits while enhancing asset liquidity through a digital asset trading platform. Singapore's regulatory framework provides an institutional foundation for such innovations and also reflects the broader trend of traditional finance transitioning into the digital asset ecosystem. The emergence of RWA products like carbon coins indicates that not only virtual assets are evolving, but the on-chain and trading methods of real-world assets are also undergoing profound restructuring.

Are Hong Kong listed companies also starting to play with carbon coins? This time, RWA really isn't a scam.

Hmm... It's the same RWA trick again, this time switching to carbon tokens. It feels like a new way to harvest retail investors.

The issue of bringing carbon coins onto the blockchain feels like traditional finance putting a Web3 shell on it. Having real assets backed is ultimately more reassuring.

Carbon coins... sound pretty good, but can they really become liquid?

The carbon coin is really coming on the chain, and now listed companies can't sit still... Singapore's move is indeed aggressive, and the RWA path is becoming clearer and clearer.

Hong Kong Stock Exchange listed companies are now playing with carbon coins. Is RWA really about to take off?
