Prince Group Joint Temporary Liquidators: Chinese victims may be able to file claims, over 90,000 BTC has flowed through related entities

As the "leader" of the Prince Group of Cambodia, Chen Zhi has been apprehended, prompting various judicial jurisdictions to initiate the disposal of assets related to the Prince Group. Local courts have appointed Joint Provisional Liquidators (JPLs) to investigate and preserve the corresponding assets surrounding the 30 British Virgin Islands (BVI) entities actually controlled by Chen Zhi. The bankruptcy proceedings in the British Virgin Islands are collective in nature, and the eligibility for creditor claims is not determined by nationality or jurisdiction; potential victims from any jurisdiction can file claims, which means that victims of online fraud and gambling from China can also submit claims at some point in the future.It is reported that the liquidation list includes 30 BVI companies, including Prince Global Group Ltd, most of which are actually controlled by Chen Zhi, while only 28 BVI companies are listed on the U.S. Treasury's sanctions list. Furthermore, "the scope of liquidation is not solely determined by sanctions," as two companies not sanctioned but included in the liquidation list, Amber Hill Ventures Limited ("AHV") and Lateral Bridge Global Limited ("LBG"), have been mentioned in U.S. judicial proceedings and are considered entities within the widely associated network of the Prince Group, accused of having no other practical use besides participating in money laundering. The prosecution claims that of the more than 120,000 bitcoins confiscated in the U.S., over 90,000 flowed through AHV, LBG, and another company registered in the Cayman Islands, Future Technology Investment; among them, the chairman and shareholder of AHV is Fan Yang, and the chairman and shareholder of LBG is Minyi Tang, who are referred to in the U.S. indictment as "Co-conspirator 6" and "Co-conspirator 7," respectively. Regarding the claims of victims of online fraud and gambling, a claims filing and distribution process has not yet been established. If a liquidation process is initiated in the future and there are sufficient funds to support distributions to creditors, the liquidators will establish a claims process, adjudicate claims, and make distributions in accordance with the British Virgin Islands bankruptcy law.

Bitget, in collaboration with Reality and Keyring, released a research report and plans to launch the first on-chain stock basis trading strategy

Bitget, in collaboration with Reality and Keyring, has released a research report exploring the synergy mechanisms of tokenized stocks, perpetual contracts, and decentralized lending, and evaluating the potential returns and risks of related strategies through simulation calculations. The report points out that the application of tokenized stocks is extending from traditional stock trading to more scenarios such as collateralized lending, asset management, and systematic investment strategies.The research is based on Reality's rToken, combined with stock perpetual contract hedging and on-chain lending mechanisms, to explore stock basis yield strategies. Historical simulation data shows that from December 15, 2025, to October 19, 2026, the annualized net return of the strategy index is approximately 7% and 4% for in-sample and out-of-sample, respectively, with a gross funding cost rate premium of about 11% to 14%. The report also notes that financing costs, transaction execution fees, market liquidity, and risk management are key factors affecting the actual returns of the strategy.It is reported that Bitget and Keyring plan to jointly develop a stock basis index and build an on-chain lending market based on Reality's rToken. Among them, Reality provides exposure to tokenized stock assets, while Keyring is responsible for developing the index methodology and constructing the related lending market. The index aims to capture funding rate and basis yield opportunities by combining rToken holdings with corresponding stock perpetual contract hedging positions, providing new strategic pathways for the application of tokenized stocks in on-chain financial scenarios.

first_img Anchorage expands cooperation with Bitso, custodians of the stablecoin channel between the United States and Mexico

Anchorage Digital announced the expansion of its custody and listing arrangements with the Latin American cryptocurrency platform Bitso, extending its custody layer to cover both ends of the stablecoin corridor between the United States and Mexico. According to the agreement announced on Tuesday, the Mexican peso stablecoin MXNB issued by Bitso is now being custodied by this federally chartered crypto bank across six blockchains: Arbitrum, Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, and Arc.Meanwhile, Bitso has launched the USD stablecoins USDPT and USAT, which are issued and custodied by Anchorage, with the former coming from Western Union and the latter from Tether. The financial terms were not disclosed by either party. This collaboration targets one of the largest cross-border payment flows in the world, the U.S.-Mexico remittance corridor, which transfers billions of dollars annually, with approximately 15% currently operating through Bitso's infrastructure.Nathan McCauley, CEO and co-founder of Anchorage, stated that the U.S.-Mexico corridor is where stablecoins transition from theory to large-scale real money flows, and the company has now become the institutional custody layer at both ends of that flow. Ben Reid, head of stablecoins at Bitso, mentioned that customers can now access the complete dollar-peso corridor through a fully on-chain method supported by a federally chartered bank. This move also continues the trend of Circle's recent expansion of Latin American stablecoins with the launch of a USDC settlement pilot in Colombia.
