Dr Ming Shu, Lingfeng Capital, commented: “The team at Lingfeng is very impressed with the Crypto Finance AG management and operations. This opportunity brings us exposure to the promising crypto asset fintechs working within the regulatory framework and a partner with traditional finance sector experience. We look forward to building a bridge between Europe and Asia with Crypto Finance, and the convergence of traditional and digital asset classes.”
