[WikiBit Field Survey] A Visit to DUKASCOPY in Hong Kong - No Office Found
Reason for this visit
As one of the global financial centers, Hong Kong attracts a great deal of capital for cryptocurrency investment from the world, playing a significant role in bridging the gap between Chinese Mainland and the world in cryptocurrency investment. Meanwhile, with developed economy and an excellent environment for innovation, Hong Kong has released a series of policies to support the development of the related sectors including cryptocurrency and blockchain. Therefore, plenty of cryptocurrency companies/projects are becoming the popular choice for more investors, among whom the majority buy cryptocurrencies online through crypto exchanges. In order to help investors to gain a comprehensive understanding of the local exchanges in Hong Kong, WikiBit survey team is determined to pay on-site visits to local companies.
On-site visit
In this issue, the survey team went to Hong Kong, China to visit cryptocurrency exchange DUKASCOPY as planned according to its purported regulatory address that Room 701, 7/F Tower 2, Silvercord, 30 Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
The investigators came to 30 Canton Road in Tsim Sha Tsui of Kowloon, Hong Kong for an on-site visit to the exchanges office, and located the Silvercord, a modern commercial building, in a business district. Its proximity to several bus routes make the building easily accessible. Additionally, a variety of amenities, such as shopping malls, restaurants, and convenient stores, are located nearby, attracting a constant stream of visitors seeking for various shopping options.
Upon arrival at the building for further investigation, the survey personnel clearly spotted a directory in the lobby, which did not indicate the information related to DUKASCOPY.
The inspection team then took the elevator to the 7th floor and discovered that room 701 was actually occupied by “SKY BUSINESS CENTRE,” a co-working space. It could be seen through the glass door that there was no company logo of DUKASCOPY. According to the security officer on duty, they never heard of DUKASCOPY in the building.
Through the on-site investigation, it is confirmed that the exchange does not have a physical presence at the location.
Conclusion
The survey team went to Hong Kong to visit cryptocurrency exchange DUKASCOPY as planned, but did not find the company at the aforementioned regulatory address. Accordingly, investors should be cautious about choosing the exchange.
