BGX’s investment in BC Technology is particularly interesting because Shawn Liu, the founder of Bitget, currently holds the largest share in BC Technology. Earlier this week, Bitget withdrew its application to become a licensed Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) in Hong Kong.
BGX Group has committed to investing in BC Technology. This move is a strategic endorsement of OSL’s vision, which aims to be at the forefront of regulated digital asset markets. BC Technology Group is the sole public company in Hong Kong focused exclusively on digital assets. This investment by BGX can potentially drive significant growth for its subsidiary, OSL.
