I'm sorry, I'm not sure about the specific legal status of cryptocurrencies in Hong Kong. Cryptocurrency regulations vary from country to country, and even within different regions of the same country. The legality of cryptocurrencies also depends on their usage and the specific crypto assets involved. I would suggest seeking legal advice or consulting with local financial regulatory authorities to obtain accurate and up-to-date information on the legality of cryptocurrencies in Hong Kong.

This regulatory stance means that cryptocurrencies do not enjoy the same legal status as fiat currencies in Hong Kong.
