On February 11, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) released new guidance allowing licensed brokers offering virtual asset trading services (virtual asset brokers) to expand their scope to include margin financing. The regulator also established a high-level framework to guide virtual asset trading platforms in proposing leveraged virtual asset products for professional investors. These changes align with the SFC’s ASPIRe roadmap, which focuses on diversifying product and service offerings. Under the new rules, virtual asset brokers may offer virtual asset financing to their securities margin clients—provided they meet requirements for adequate collateral and strong investor protection. This is expected to boost participation from margin clients with solid credit and collateral, while enhancing Hong Kong’s virtual asset market liquidity in a risk-controlled framework. For licensed virtual asset trading platforms, the SFC has for the first time rolled out a high-le

QCP Capital released market analysis on its official channel on February 11, noting Bitcoin and Ethereum rebounded from last week’s lows—sparking market optimism and potentially forming a short-term bottom. QCP still expects BTC to stay range-bound as the market awaits fresh catalysts; fund inflows remain a key driver.

On February 11, former Multicoin co-founder Kyle Samani predicted Solana’s microstructure advancements over the next 18 months will outpace any prior period in crypto history. Key highlights to watch include: **Alpenglow**: A major upcoming consensus mechanism upgrade—one of Solana’s largest protocol-level changes ever. It simplifies consensus logic drastically, cutting block finalization time from ~12 seconds to 100–150 milliseconds, while removing legacy components like Proof of History and Tower BFT. New block propagation and voting mechanisms will deliver ultra-low latency infrastructure for high-frequency financial apps. **ACE (Application Control of Execution)**: A core innovation on Solana’s roadmap.

This lets Solana DeFi apps customize their market microstructure—e.g., order mat
