mF International to Wind Down Legacy Financial Trading Business, Shift Focus Completely to Digital Asset Strategy

Published

on

Strategic decision allows the Company to commit its full energy to a growing digital asset-centric business model

mF International holds 678,922 Bitcoin Cash (BCH) as of October 15, 2026

HONG KONG, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — mF International Limited (NASDAQ:MFI) (“mF International” or the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved the wind-down and dissolution of the Company’s legacy financial trading solutions business. Following the wind-down, the Company intends to direct its full focus and resources to the development of its Bitcoin Cash (BCH) digital asset treasury, self-mining operations, and other digital asset initiatives going forward.

The decision follows a series of steps the Company has taken since the start of 2026 to build its digital asset operations and represents an important milestone in the planned evolution of mF International’s business model. Notable digital asset initiatives include the Company’s development of BCH self-mining capacity and its ongoing application for a Bermuda Class IILT insurance license to support a future digital asset-denominated life insurance offering. As the Company’s digital asset operations have become more established and continue to grow in importance, management have determined that prioritizing their development is the most effective way to foster long-term growth.

The Company’s BCH self-mining business has continued to grow. Cumulatively, from July 30, 2026 through September 30, 2026, the Company mined 2,265.42 BCH. As of October 15, 2026, the Company held 678,922 BCH, representing approximately 3.23% of the total supply.

The wind-down of the legacy financial trading solutions business will entail the deregistration of m-Finance Limited and its two subsidiaries, Omegatraders Systems Limited and m-Finance Trading Technologies Limited (collectively the “Legacy Companies”), and the disposal of their remaining assets. The Company expects to complete the sale of these remaining legacy fixed assets and domain names by the end of October 2026. Asset disposals, liquidation expenses and final taxes will be recorded in the final audited accounts of the three companies as of December 15, 2026, after which no further changes will be made to their accounting records. The full financial impact on mF International will be reflected in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

“The wind-down of our legacy financial trading business is a deliberate decision, made as our digital asset operations have become established and are growing in importance to the Company,” said Mr. Dawei Yuan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of mF International. “By concentrating our attention and resources on our digital asset strategy, we expect to be better positioned to scale our BCH self-mining operations, grow our BCH treasury, and advance our planned digital asset-denominated life insurance offering. This decision reflects the direction we have been building toward since the start of 2026, and we believe it puts the Company on a clearer, more focused path. We look forward to updating shareholders on our progress as we continue to build mF International into a digital asset-native business.”

The Company will continue to provide updates on its BCH holdings, mining operations, and new business developments through its corporate website, https://mfi.ltd, and its investor relations website, https://ir.mfi.ltd.

Chelsea FC name fast-growing fintech platform as Principal Partner

LONDON, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chelsea Football Club has today announced a multi-year partnership with Sokin, the embedded finance and payments company used by businesses worldwide. Sokin will be named a Principal Partner and Official Business Payments and FX Partner of Chelsea FC and Chelsea FC Women.

As a Principal Partner, Sokin will be represented on the sleeves of the Chelsea FC men’s, women’s and academy home, away, and third kits from the 2026/27 season.

The partnership brings together two ambitious London-headquartered organisations with worldwide reach – a club with millions of fans across the world and a fintech platform through which businesses move more than $11 billion a year. A club of Chelsea’s scale works in many currencies every day, with partners, competitions and supporters around the world, and needs a financial partner built to handle that.

Sokin gives finance teams business payments, multi-currency accounts, foreign exchange, checkout and treasury in one place, so they spend less time juggling banks and providers and keep more of what they move.

As Official Business Payments and FX Partner, Sokin will simplify how Chelsea FC sends, receives and manages money in the currencies the club operates in.

The Sokin logo will feature on the sleeve of the Chelsea shirt for the first time [when the men’s team host Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 24th October.]

Jason Gannon, President at Chelsea FC said:

“At Chelsea, we seek to partner with organisations that share our ambition and innovative mindset. Sokin’s expertise in business payments, and their focus on making both simpler for the businesses they serve, makes them a natural fit for the Club. We are pleased to welcome Sokin to the Chelsea family and look forward to working together in the years ahead.”

Vroon Modgill, CEO and founder at Sokin said:

“Chelsea plays on the biggest stage in world football, and its business runs in dozens of currencies. Sokin was built for that with regulated, multi-currency payments and foreign exchange for organisations that operate internationally. We’re proud to be the platform behind the business payments and FX of one of the most iconic teams in football. Sokin’s platform serves businesses in more than 170 countries. We’re thrilled to be partners for the season ahead. An organisation as sophisticated as Chelsea doesn’t leave its finances to chance.”

About Sokin

Sokin is the financial layer global business runs on. Businesses can transact, convert and hold money in 70+ currencies across 170+ countries. Some businesses use Sokin to manage global finance in-house. Others build it into their products to power financial experiences for their customers. Businesses move more than $9 billion a year on licenses Sokin holds in 36+ countries and infrastructure Sokin owns. Founded in 2019, Sokin has raised over $100 million from investors including Morgan Stanley Expansion Capital and Prysm Capital.

About Chelsea Football Club

Chelsea Football Club is one of the biggest, most successful football clubs globally and our men’s team are reigning world champions, having won the four-yearly FIFA Club World Cup in 2025. Our women’s team, Chelsea Women, are also multiple trophy winners.

Founded in 1905, Chelsea is London’s most central football club, based at the iconic 40,000-capacity Stamford Bridge stadium. Nicknamed the Blues, the club lifted the Champions League for the first time in 2012 and domestically has won the Premier League five times, the FA Cup eight times, the Football League Cup five times and the Football League Championship once, in 1955.

The Chelsea Women’s team have enjoyed a huge amount of success and in 2025 won the FA Women’s Super League for a sixth consecutive year and the eighth time overall. The Women’s FA Cup has been won on six occasions. We have also captured the FA Women’s League Cup four times as well as reaching the UEFA Women’s Champions League final in 2021. In two seasons, 2020/21 and 2024/25, a domestic treble of trophies was secured.

The Chelsea Foundation boasts one of the most extensive community initiatives in sport, helping to improve the lives of children and young people all over the world.
