Futu Securities International, the largest online brokerage in Hong Kong, is rolling out an enticing promotional offer for new customers that includes deposit bonuses in Bitcoin. This initiative aims to encourage individuals to open accounts and embark on their trading journeys.
According to details provided on the company’s website, from August 1 to August 31, 2024, new clients who fulfill certain criteria can enjoy a range of rewards, prominently featuring significant Bitcoin (BTC) bonuses. This strategy is tailored to attract fresh investors and offer them various incentives.
Eligibility for the promotion extends to individuals aged 18 and above who have never had a Futu HK brokerage account or deposited funds with Futu HK prior to August 1, 2024. Additionally, participants must possess a Hong Kong resident identity card or a valid overseas passport.
### Deposit Rewards and Criteria
The deposit rewards are structured in tiers, providing multiple options for participants. For the first tier, a minimum deposit of HK$10,000 is required by August 31, 2024, along with an average daily asset balance of HK$10,000 maintained over 60 days.

In July, Hong Kong unveiled its innovative stablecoin regulatory framework, which garnered widespread support from stakeholders after a public consultation period that wrapped up in February.
