The Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) has approved the listing of two additional digital assets, HBAR and GRT, following a proposal by digital asset exchange Luno.
This brings the total number of SC-approved digital assets on Luno to 22, making it one of the most extensive selections offered by a regulated exchange in Malaysia.
The approvals mark the second batch of digital assets cleared by the SC this year.
To date, Luno has submitted over 25 proposals, of which 22 have been approved.
HBAR is the native token of the Hedera network, offering fast, low-cost transactions via hashgraph consensus.
GRT, from The Graph protocol, is a decentralised indexing system designed to make querying blockchain data across multiple networks more efficient.
Earlier in 2025, Luno introduced Algorand and NEAR Protocol on its platform.
It also expanded its staking services to include Polkadot, NEAR, and Cosmos, reflecting its ongoing efforts to broaden offerings for users.
HBAR and GRT are now available for trading on Luno.
Scarlett Chai, Country Manager for Malaysia, Luno, said,
“The addition of these two digital assets follows a rigorous screening process by Luno, which evaluates potential assets against strict technical, regulatory, and legal criteria to ensure their feasibility and suitability for introduction in Malaysia, as well as other markets across APAC, Europe, and Africa.
Shortlisted coins are then proposed to the SC for a country-wide approval, allowing the Malaysian public to invest or trade the respective digital assets.”
