Police arrested six people and one Internet celebrity
According to Ming Pao News Network , Hong Kong police arrested four men and two women in various districts on the 18th on suspicion of "conspiracy to defraud."
In addition, according to Hong Kong media , following the previous arrest of JPEX promotion celebrity Lin Zuo, the police arrested Chen Yi (formerly known as Chen Kaiyi), an internet celebrity suspected of operating a cryptocurrency exchange service.
According to sources, the police originally targeted another person in the entertainment industry, but were unable to arrest him because he was not in Hong Kong.

JPEX’s daily announcement: Determining the sustainable operation platform
JPEX issued an announcement on the evening of the 18th, once again emphasizing that it had communicated with the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission, but was treated unfairly. The Securities Regulatory Commission also specially sent a letter to all partners requesting to terminate the cooperative relationship with JPEX.
JPEX said it tried to contact the Securities and Futures Commission, which only responded that it had referred it to the police for investigation.
JPEX stated that even in the face of successive challenges, it will continue to operate unswervingly, and the dedicated team for emergency currency withdrawal applications will continue to provide users with priority withdrawal assistance.
