Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission added BTCC to its suspicious virtual-asset trading platform list on 22 October 2026. The entry identifies the website btcc.com and operator BTCC Poland Limited, stating that the platform is not licensed by the SFC and is suspected of conducting unlicensed activities in Hong Kong.[1]
The SFC’s exact identification
| Field | Published entry |
|---|---|
| Platform | BTCC |
| Operator | BTCC Poland Limited |
| Website | https://www.btcc.com/ |
| Alert category | Suspicious virtual-asset trading platforms |
| Added | 22 October 2026 |
| Regulatory statement | Not SFC-licensed; suspected unlicensed activity in Hong Kong |
The alert is specific to Hong Kong’s licensing perimeter and the named operator. A registration or corporate presence elsewhere would not establish SFC permission. Equally, the wording should not be broadened into a criminal conviction, a finding that all BTCC transactions are fraudulent or a worldwide prohibition.[1]
The public entry remained present in the 26 October review. It contains no quantified customer-loss finding or compensation determination.[1]
