HTX
HTX, a crypto exchange founded by Justin Sun and formerly known as Huobi Global S.A., exited the United Kingdom under a High Court deal with the FCA in October 2026. The arrangement blocks deposits, prevents new UK account registrations, and leaves existing customers unable to withdraw, as the UK Treasury sanctioned Huobi Global S.A. on 26 May 2026 for alleged ties to Russia, covering the exchange. The FCA’s October 2025 lawsuit counted 4.6 million UK visits in 2023 and, under a court order, requires HTX not to promote crypto to UK consumers. HTX has pledged to cease UK marketing until October 2031 and states compliance with UK financial‑promotion regulations.}]}· Entity summary generated by Graphiti
