 Details indicate that the BGX investment involves a subscription for shares in the OSL parent company to the tune of HK$710 million (approximately $90 million.)
 “Our investment in BC Technology Group and OSL is a strategic move that reflects our belief in the immense potential of the digital asset market,” said Patrick Pan, CEO of BGX. “We are confident that this partnership will not only strengthen BGX’s global presence but also enhance the growth trajectory of the digital asset industry,” he added.
 While the strategic subscription for shares has been agreed, these will be undertaken under a specific mandate. That will be after an approval from the BC Technology shareholders.&nbsp;

 OSL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BC Technology, was the first digital assets exchange to receive regulatory approval from Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC).
 Today’s announcement comes a day after BitgetX, the Hong Kong crypto platform of BGX, notified its customers of plans to halt operations by December 13. The exchange will not pursue a licence from SFC.
 BC Technology also asked the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong to halt trading of OSL shares in view of a business deal. The&nbsp;Bitget announcement also put its decision to the same consideration.
 The price of Bitget Token (BGB) rose sharply after the news to trade at an all-time high of $0.58.
