UTXO Management, in partnership with Sora Ventures and a consortium of investors, recently announced the acquisition of a controlling 70.26% stake in HK Asia Holdings Limited (1723.HK), a Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKSE)-listed entity.
The transaction sets the stage for a strategic overhaul, including a proposed rebrand to Moon Inc., as the company shifts focus toward digital currency investments, Web 3.0 innovation, and digital asset opportunities in Asia’s financial hub.
Strategic Highlights:
- Majority Control Achieved: The investor consortium, led by UTXO Management and Sora Ventures, has secured a 70.26% stake in HK Asia Holdings. This positions the group to steer the company’s transformation into a leader in Hong Kong’s evolving digital economy.
- Proven Track Record: The acquiring team brings expertise from their success with Japan’s Metaplanet (3350:Tokyo ), a trailblazer in corporate bitcoin strategy. Local partners Top Legend SPC and Allied Top Investments add deep regional market insights to ensure Moon Inc.’s alignment with Hong Kong’s regulatory and economic landscape.
- Funding for Growth: Moon Inc. will issue HK 33.75million (approx.4.3 million USD) in convertible notes to bolster liquidity, fund operational needs, and pursue strategic investments. Upon conversion, the consortium’s ownership will rise to 74%, reinforcing their commitment to long-term value creation.
- Rebranding for a New Era: The transition to “Moon Inc.” reflects the company’s ambition to become a nexus for Web 3.0 development and digital asset innovation, capitalizing on Hong Kong’s status as a global financial gateway.
Vision and Market Opportunity:
Hong Kong, home to the world’s ninth-largest public equity market, offers a strategic base for Moon Inc. to bridge traditional finance with emerging technologies.
The move aligns with the city’s recent embrace of financial innovation, including Asia’s first Bitcoin ETF and its role as host of the region’s premier blockchain conferences.
“This acquisition is a catalyst for redefining value in public markets,” said Tyler Evans, Managing Partner at UTXO Management. “With Sora Ventures and our partners, we’re positioned to leverage Hong Kong’s unique strengths to drive innovation and shareholder returns.”
Jason Fang, Founder of Sora Ventures, added: “Hong Kong’s progressive stance on digital assets creates fertile ground for Moon Inc. Our goal is to deliver a hybrid model that merges Web 3.0 agility with the rigor of a listed entity.”
