# Hong Kong Gold Exchange Collaborates with Alibaba on Blockchain Development

> Hong Kong Gold Exchange has partnered with Alibaba's subsidiary to develop a blockchain for digital commodities and an international trading platform. Announced during the New Year opening ceremony, the initiative aims to unify risk management and regulatory systems for various trading types. The project is expected to be completed within six months and will integrate into the Hong Kong Gold Central Clearing System established by the government.

Hong Kong Gold Exchange held its New Year opening ceremony yesterday, marking the beginning of the Year of the Fire Horse. According to ChainCatcher, during the event, Chairman Zhang Dexi announced that the exchange has officially partnered with a subsidiary of Alibaba Group to develop a blockchain for digital commodities, along with an international precious metals trading platform and settlement system.
