Huobi Global is currently headquartered in the Seychelles with additional offices in the US, Hong Kong and Japan. The FT report claims the company has plans to move about 200 of its 1,600 employees to the new headquarters. The Caribbean has become one of the most desirable tourist destinations due to its openness to new technologies. Some of the companies that have moved into the spot include FTX, which switched last year, Binance, and PrimeBit.

Last month, About Capital Management took over Huobi Global after initiating a purchase deal. After the deal was signed, there were rumors that some executives would step down from the old management. The company is also expected to lay off some of its employees. However, a company spokesperson dismissed concerns that the company is still very green financially. However, he hinted that the company would cut some costs due to the difficult market situation.
