A Hong Kong judge ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a case involving JPEX, stating that cryptocurrencies are considered "property" in Hong Kong

ChainCatcher news, according to Hong Kong media reports, JPEX is suspected of violating regulations by promoting and operating in Hong Kong. The first civil lawsuit involves two plaintiffs seeking to recover 240,000 Tether or 1.85 million Hong Kong dollars from JPEX Group and a total of 7 defendants. One of the defendants, a JPEX registered company in Hong Kong, was absent from last month's hearing. Judge Zhou Zhaowen issued a ruling yesterday stating that the company, as an operator, holds assets and constitutes an express trust but has violated its responsibilities. Particularly, the case of the first plaintiff is evidently strong, thus the judge ordered the company to compensate at the request of the two individuals.According to the statement of claim, the first defendant, a company registered in Australia under JPEX, operates the JPEX virtual asset service and electronic platform. The plaintiffs personally or in their name deposited virtual currency into the platform account, and they request the court to rule that the second defendant has violated good faith and/or must restructure and repay debts. The judge also stated that in many common law jurisdictions, including Hong Kong, courts accept that cryptocurrency is considered "property" and can form a trust.The judge recognized that the two defendants operate a cryptocurrency trading platform, which records the movement of currency between accounts, involving trustee benefits and various agreement terms. Therefore, the defendants, as trustees, violated their responsibilities by transferring assets without authorization.
