Good Evening
Banking Announcement:
“HKEX Confirms Decision to Allow Issuers to Hold Treasury Shares. Allowing Hong Kong-incorporated issuers to hold treasury shares will give them ‘greater flexibility in managing their capital structure.'”
These changes will take effect on June 11th, 2024. It will give Hong Kong companies more control over their capital.
During down times for their company, this will enable them to have an asset that will neutralize some of the capital flows needed during times of great economical challenges such as the one going on now. Morgan Lewis

The tokenization and expansion of tokenized assets is well underway. Currently, we are seeing the expansion of Regulations on a Global scale. Along with this movement, payment structures and laws are being established for them.
Support mechanisms are being added two companies and various other institutions that will increase the net worth of companies going forward through Government issuance of assets backed by gold.
The new QFS is unlike any Financial System we have had before. This one is more comprehensive and inclusive of support mechanisms used by Governments to help sustain our economies during a crisis.

Perhaps, this is the reason why Governments are buying so much gold, and the certainty of a bull market in Commodities such as gold have never been more needed than it is now.
We are simply at the beginning stages of a bull run in gold, gold is a World Reserve Asset that is recognized by all countries. And, the need for it in use case scenarios appears to have no end. Gold Avenue

Government Announcement:
“Top U.S. House Lawmakers Meet on Stablecoin Bill”
The House Financial Services Committee are currently meeting on what the next steps are going to be for pushing the legislative process forward on Stablecoins.
The Stablecoins will enable the world to pay for tokenized assets through digital mechanisms going forward.
There is an urgency to push these bills forward. Once MICA is complete at the end of May, countries around the world will have a working regulation process to finish their own testing of protocols and interface them on the Quantum Financial System.
At that point, we will witness the transition of our Global Economy transition into a Digital Financial System. This will reset many of the price actions on the markets and their correlating protocols with the banks. It will include all sectors of the market. Youtube Coindesk
