BYDFi, a global crypto trading platform, announced its sponsorship of Solana Accelerate APAC during the Consensus Hong Kong 2026 conference. Held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre alongside the main event, the gathering brought together founders, institutional players, policymakers, and blockchain developers, reinforcing Hong Kong's role as a regional hub for Web3 and blockchain innovation across Asia-Pacific.
Solana Accelerate APAC Lands in Hong Kong
Solana Accelerate APAC convened the Solana community and the broader crypto ecosystem to discuss the future of internet capital markets and onchain innovation, set against the backdrop of a global financial center with clear regulatory frameworks and active market participation. BYDFi's sponsorship marks its first significant step into Solana-focused programming and community dialogue. Conversations also reflected ongoing market attention on crypto regulation and licensing in Hong Kong.
During the event, the BYDFi team engaged with attendees on-site, shared product context, and distributed limited merchandise, including Newcastle United co-branded items as part of the club's ongoing partnership with BYDFi. The booth saw strong foot traffic throughout the day.
CEX + DEX Dual-Engine Strategy
BYDFi used the event to showcase how a CEX + DEX dual-engine approach can support clearer participation across venues and workflows, particularly for users who want both centralized liquidity and onchain discovery in a single connected experience. MoonX, BYDFi's onchain trading engine, supports Solana and is built to help users track and navigate fast-moving onchain markets with a workflow designed for speed, signal clarity, and execution efficiency.
Reliability Backed by Proof of Reserves and 800 BTC Protection Fund
On the reliability front, BYDFi highlighted operational safeguards that build long-term trust in volatile markets: over 1:1 Proof of Reserves with periodic public reporting, an 800 BTC Protection Fund, and 24/7 multilingual customer support with timely responses across official channels, including social media. Michael, Co-Founder and CEO of BYDFi, said: “Solana Accelerate APAC creates the right setting for practical conversations between builders, market participants, and policymakers. BYDFi joined to learn, connect, and contribute in a way that holds up over time. Reliability is built through consistent infrastructure, clear safeguards, and responsive support, and BYDFi will continue strengthening all three as engagement across the Solana ecosystem deepens.”
