Together Driving the Development of Hong Kong’s Virtual Asset Market

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 22 May 2023 – Eddid Financial and Venture Smart Financial Holdings Limited (“VSFG”) have forged a strategic cooperation and investment partnership, committing to marrying their best strengths and, abiding by compliance framework permits, working together to promote the sustainable development of financial services along the virtual asset value chain, and ultimately drive the development of Hong Kong’s virtual asset market.

Eddid Financial, a full-service financial group rooted in Hong Kong, has always been driven by fintech and is dedicated to providing comprehensive, one-stop financial services and products that are safe, reliable, high-quality, and convenient.
