Huobi HTX reached a constructive dialogue with the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the relevant litigation has been properly resolved

BlockBeats reports that October 29, Huobi HTX announced that the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had previously initiated legal proceedings against the exchange in the UK, which have now been properly resolved following a period of constructive communication between the parties.

Huobi HTX has consistently cooperated in good faith with FCA, worked proactively with FCA and actively responded to its concerns regarding the UK market. During this period, Huobi HTX gradually strengthened restrictions related to the UK market and exit arrangements based on its commitment to continually adhering to compliance standards, and introduced supporting operational measures.

These measures were implemented well before the settlement was reached. The settlement further reinforces the above measures and does not constitute an admission by Huobi HTX of any legal liability, misconduct, or violation.

The settlement eliminates the relevant legal uncertainty and is consistent with the trading platform's commitment to continuously improving its compliance standards. This enables Huobi HTX to focus on what matters most: providing users with high-value services and achieving long-term sustainable growth.

Huobi HTX thanks all parties for their professional cooperation in properly resolving this matter and will continue to focus on serving users responsibly. Looking ahead, Huobi HTX is willing to cooperate constructively with all parties in the industry, including working with regulators where appropriate, to jointly safeguard users' interests and promote the healthy development of the digital asset ecosystem.
