    The Supreme People's Court and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly issued five typical cases of punishing pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law.

According to statistics, the platform has registered more than 2.6 million member accounts, with a hierarchy of 3,293 levels, and collected more than 9 million virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, Tether, and EOS. The people's court sentenced the organizers and leaders of cross-border network pyramid schemes according to their positions and roles in the entire criminal chain, and confiscated virtual currencies such as Bitcoin involved in the case in accordance with the law. Relevant officials of the Supreme People's Court stated that in the next step, the people's court will work with market supervision departments and other units to strictly punish illegal pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law.

  • Hong Kong investment in virtual assets will not be subject to capital gains tax

    Hong Kong investors in virtual assets will not be subject to asset value-added tax, which is a very attractive point for global investors. For example, in Japan and Australia, although they have expanded the virtual asset market earlier than Hong Kong, they still need to pay asset value-added tax, which will be included in the comprehensive tax rate calculation. The comprehensive tax rates in Japan and Australia can be as high as 50% and 40% respectively. For investors, investment returns are of course the most important consideration, and Hong Kong's low tax system will attract more international investors to settle in Hong Kong.
