In the ever - changing global financial landscape, Hong Kong is quietly initiating a far - reaching financial transformation. Recently, Hong Kong has taken an important step in the field of cryptocurrency regulation. The promulgation of the "Stablecoin Ordinance" has become the focus of the cryptocurrency circle. Meanwhile, the international influence of the central bank's digital RMB has also been increasing. The combination of these two is like two sharp swords being drawn, seemingly aiming at the hegemonic position of the US dollar in the international monetary system. So, what profound meaning does Hong Kong's move contain? How will the RMB stablecoin and the digital RMB join hands to challenge the US dollar hegemony? Let's explore in depth.

Focus on Hong Kong's "Stablecoin Ordinance"

The promulgation of the "Stablecoin Ordinance" in Hong Kong is not accidental. It is an important decision made against the backdrop of the booming global cryptocurrency market. With the rise of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, stablecoins, as a type of crypto - asset with relatively stable prices, have gradually become a bridge between the cryptocurrency market and the traditional financial market. As an international financial center, Hong Kong has keenly captured the potential of stablecoins. The introduction of the "Stablecoin Ordinance" is, on the one hand, to regulate the stablecoin market and prevent financial risks; on the other hand, it is to promote the innovative development of Hong Kong in the field of crypto - finance. By clarifying regulatory rules, Hong Kong is expected to attract more stablecoin issuance institutions and related enterprises to settle in, enhancing its competitiveness in the global crypto - finance field.

Offshore RMB Stablecoin Issuance Plan

The issuance plan of the offshore RMB stablecoin is a crucial part of Hong Kong's financial transformation this time. The so - called offshore RMB stablecoin refers to a stablecoin issued in the offshore market, with the RMB as the anchor currency. The emergence of this stablecoin will bring new opportunities for the internationalization of the RMB. First of all, it can improve the convenience of the RMB in international payments and settlements. In the traditional international payment system, the use of the RMB is subject to many restrictions, while the offshore RMB stablecoin can use blockchain technology to achieve fast, convenient and low - cost cross - border payments. Secondly, the offshore RMB stablecoin can enhance the influence of the RMB in the international financial market. By issuing and circulating in the offshore market, the RMB stablecoin can attract more international investors to hold RMB assets, thereby enhancing the international status of the RMB.

International Influence of the Central Bank's Digital RMB

The central bank's digital RMB, which is the digital form of legal tender, is an important achievement of the People's Bank of China in promoting financial innovation. In recent years, the pilot work of the central bank's digital RMB in China has achieved remarkable results, and its application scenarios have been continuously expanding. Internationally, the central bank's digital RMB has also received more and more attention. Compared with traditional currencies, the central bank's digital RMB has higher security, traceability and convenience. In the field of cross - border payments, the central bank's digital RMB can bypass the US - dollar - dominated international payment system and achieve direct currency exchange, thus reducing the dependence on the US dollar. 

In addition, the promotion of the central bank's digital RMB can also promote the diversified development of the international financial system and contribute to global financial stability.

Chinese - funded Institutions Build New Infrastructure for "De - dollarization" with Blockchain Technology

Chinese - funded institutions play an important role in this action to challenge the US dollar hegemony. With the help of blockchain technology, Chinese - funded institutions can build new infrastructure for "de - dollarization". Blockchain technology has the characteristics of decentralization, immutability and transparency, which is very suitable for application in the financial field. Chinese - funded institutions can use blockchain technology to build infrastructure such as cross - border payment platforms and digital asset trading platforms, realizing direct transactions between the RMB and other currencies and reducing the intermediary role of the US dollar. In addition, Chinese - funded institutions can also strengthen financial cooperation with other countries and regions through blockchain technology to promote the widespread use of the RMB in the international financial market.

Two Swords Combined to Challenge the US Dollar Hegemony

The combination of the RMB stablecoin and the digital RMB forms a powerful synergy. The RMB stablecoin can provide more application scenarios and circulation channels for the digital RMB in the offshore market, while the digital RMB can provide strong credit support for the RMB stablecoin. This model of combining the two swords is expected to break the monopoly of the US dollar in the international monetary system. On the one hand, by increasing the international usage frequency and influence of the RMB, it can reduce the global dependence on the US dollar; on the other hand, it can promote the diversified development of the international financial system and promote the fairness and stability of the global financial order.

In short, the linkage between Hong Kong's "Stablecoin Ordinance" and the central bank's digital RMB, as well as the offshore RMB stablecoin issuance plan, provide new ideas and ways to challenge the US dollar hegemony. With the active participation of Chinese - funded institutions, the RMB stablecoin and the digital RMB are expected to play a more important role in the international financial arena. 

Although the road to challenging the US dollar hegemony is full of challenges, we have reason to believe that with the continuous development of China's financial technology and the improvement of its international influence, the position of the RMB in the international monetary system will continue to rise, and the situation of the US dollar hegemony will gradually change.
