HONG KONG,
CHINA – Media OutReach –
12 November 2019 – Cash is king, Gold is better. There is more than one reason
bitcoin is dubbed as “digital gold” in time of turbulence. TideBit, as the largest and safest
bitcoin to fiat exchange in Hong Kong and frequently quoted for its signature
pair BTC/HKD and ETH/HKD, is grasping a golden opportunity presented by HK
Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). 

During the Hong Kong Fintech Week, the HK SFC issued regulatory
policies for digital currency exchanges. Two major take-away points:

1. The new rules will apply to security tokens and digital assets
only, but not to mainstream cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or
Ethereum as regarded as commodity, not securities.

2. SFC warned investors about the risks associated with the trading
of futures contracts, which are highly leveraged, largely unregulated and
exposed to tremendous risk. 

TideBit
exchange platform token TBT rose nearly 30% after the announcement, and the
volume of transactions also surged more than three times within one day. A
TideBit speaks person commented: “TideBit welcome the new SFC
framework to proactively protect the investors. In the long run, only the
self-disciplined, self-regulated exchanges with vision could reap the long-term
benefits of blockchain technology and decentralized community. I am extremely
excited by the opportunities presented by the SFC framework. TideBit has been
operating under compliance and welcomes the SFC policies.”

The Hong Kong Fintech Week, presented by InvestHK and organized by FINNOVASIA is one of
Asia’s biggest fintech events. Themes of this year’s event include the latest
Fintech developments in Hong Kong and the new entrants to the city’s financial
services industry. These include virtual banks, digital insurers and those
driving the development of new technologies, including artificial intelligence,
big data and blockchain. TideiSun Group’s TideBit is the
Asia’s largest and safest bitcoin to fiat exchange. Users can sign up, deposit
fund and trade within 10 minutes. 

About TideiSun Group

TideiSun Group is a global
FinTech and media group known for its business model innovation. We operate
both public and private subsidiaries, embrace venture capital and private
equity with the creative token economy, accelerate enterprise adoption of
blockchain and AI technology, bridge the gap between digital assets and fiat

HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – November 11, 2019 – A significant event on Hong
Kong’s culinary calendar – the 20^th edition of the Italian Alba
White Truffle World Auction, was successfully held last night at the
acclaimed 3-star-Michelin Italian restaurant 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana. The
auction of the finest Alba white truffle species together with the charity
dinner raised HKD3.56 million for the beneficiary Mother’s Choice.

The
10-hand charity dinner was curated by Umberto Bombana (centre), Executive Chef
of 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana Hong Kong, Antimo Maria Merone (2^nd from
the left), Executive Chef of 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana Macau, Riccardo La Perna
(3^rd from the right), Executive Chef of 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana

The highlight of the
evening was the winning bid of the biggest single white truffle weighting 1kg
and 5 grams, sold at HKD1.035 million to a guest from Hong Kong who triumphed
over 19 rounds of intense bidding, marking the highest bid in the past 12
years. This year’s splendid white
truffle harvest has been rich and bountiful, courtesy of a warmer climate, and
more hydrated soils.

The now 89-year-old
International Alba White Truffle Fair in Alba, Piedmont is an annual
international gastronomic celebration of the region’s white truffle harvest.
During the festival, the Alba White Truffle World Auction is held on the second
Sunday of November at Castello di Grinzane Cavour, a historic 13th century
castle located amidst a UNESCO heritage site. This year as usual, 8½ Otto e
Mezzo Bombana – the only three Michelin-starred ristorante Italiano outside of
Italy, also livestreamed the auction during the ristorante’s charity dinner
gala, and donated 100% of the proceeds to Mother’s Choice for the people in
need. The white truffle auction this year was also conducted live in Alba,
Moscow, Singapore and Hong Kong.

To show appreciation
to guests supporting the charity event, Executive Chef Umberto Bombana joined
forces with 4 award-winning chefs to curate a 10-hand 5-course dinner pairing menu
this year for the gala. Other celebrated chefs include Keith Yam (8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana Hong Kong), Antimo Maria Merone (8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana
Macau),
Riccardo La Perna (8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana Shanghai), and Albert Au (China
Club).

Originated from Alba,
Piedmont, Tuber Magnatum Pico is the most fragrant fungus among all varieties. Due
to its unique, piquant and stimulating scents, Alba white truffle is often
considered as a supreme and delectable ingredient internationally, and is
famously crowned as “white diamond of the table”. The rare white truffle cannot be
cultivated, and can only be foraged in the wild from October to December. The
precious ingredient’s scarce and ephemeral qualities make it a rare luxury
commodity, and a precious treasure for chefs to appeal epicureans all around
the world.
