Huobi Global is planning to relocate its headquarters from Singapore to Hong Kong amid the increasing crypto-supportive stance of the Hong Kong authorities.
Huobi Global is a popular 19th ranked crypto exchange. Initially, this exchange was founded as a Chinese crypto company but later shifted its businesses outside of China, as the Chinese Central Bank imposed a blanket ban on Cryptocurrencies. At present, Huobi is headquartered in Singapore but has offices in Hong Kong, South Korea, Japan, and the United States. Huobi became a public company in Hong Kong, in 2018.
On 20 Feb 2023, Justin Sun, a leading advisor at Huobi exchange, disclosed that Huobi Global is seeking to relocate its Asia headquarters from Singapore to Hong Kong.
On Twitter, Justin said that Huobi applied with the Hong Kong watchdog to get a crypto trading licence and further Huobi will focus on providing crypto trading services to Institutional & wealthy customers, as retail crypto trading is not allowed in Hong Kong.
