The operation resulted in the arrest of 12 men and women, involving criminal proceeds of 118 million Hong Kong dollars. Senior Inspector Lo Wan-shan from the Hong Kong Commercial Crime Investigation Unit's Fraud Investigation Team stated that from July 2024 to May 2025, the criminal group recruited mainland individuals as puppet account holders, primarily used to receive proceeds from various types of fraud cases.

On May 18, a famous cryptocurrency analyst Willy Woo posted on social media, "Bitcoin has long passed the stage of several-fold increases seen in 2017. 2020 was a key year for Bitcoin's 'institutionalization', with enterprises and sovereign institutions beginning to accumulate Bitcoin, with the compound annual growth rate dropping from over 100% to 30 to 40%. Bitcoin is now being traded as the newest macro asset in 150 years, and it will continue to absorb global capital until it reaches a certain 'equilibrium point'.
Considering that long-term monetary expansion is about 5% and GDP growth is 3%, I believe Bitcoin's final compound annual growth rate will stabilize around 8%. And before reaching this 'equilibrium point', it may take 15 to 20 years. There are almost no other publicly investable assets that can match Bitcoin's long-term performance."
