Hong Kong-Based OSL Group Launches $200M Equity Raise for Stablecoin and Payments Push

OSL Group, one of Asia’s leading digital asset platforms, has announced a $200 million equity financing round as it accelerates its expansion across stablecoin trading and digital payments.

The Hong Kong-listed firm said the capital raise equivalent to HK$1.56 billion and is intended to strengthen its financial position, support acquisitions and advance its strategy in the stablecoin and payments sectors.

$200M Financing Targets Global Expansion

OSL Group said the proposed equity financing will provide resources to capture emerging opportunities as stablecoins become more integrated into cross-border payments and digital financial markets.

The company said the net proceeds will be directed toward strategic acquisitions, global business expansion in payments and stablecoins continued investment in product and technology infrastructure, and general working capital.

The announcement comes as digital asset firms increasingly look to scale compliant payment rails and settlement systems that connect fiat and blockchain-based networks.

In July, the firm announced it had raised $300 million through an equity financing round, marking the largest publicly disclosed capital raise in the region’s crypto space to date.

Building a Compliant Stablecoin System

OSL Group said it has focused heavily on developing a regulated stablecoin trading and payments positioning compliance as a pillar of its long-term strategy.

The company highlighted several milestones from 2025, including its acquisition of Banxa, a Web3 payment service provider which strengthened its presence in crypto-enabled payments infrastructure.

OSL also launched OSL BizPay, a business-to-business payments solution designed to serve corporate and institutional clients and support real-economy use cases for stablecoin settlement.

Executive Highlights Acquisition Strategy

Ivan Wong, chief financial officer of OSL Group, said the financing round reflects market validation of the company’s positioning in stablecoin trading and payments.

“This financing round will allow us to welcome more like-minded strategic and long-term investors,” Wong said, adding that the funds will strengthen OSL’s capital base and diversify its shareholder structure.

He notes that the company plans to pursue acquisitions of licensed trading and payment entities globally aiming to expand its regulated footprint and reinforce its first-mover advantage as stablecoin adoption grows.

Stablecoin Payments Gain Momentum

The financing announcement comes amid broader momentum in stablecoin-based payments, as financial institutions and fintech platforms explore blockchain settlement as a faster and more efficient alternative to traditional rails.

OSL Group said its mission is to provide compliant and efficient digital financial infrastructure services that enable enterprises, financial institutions and individuals to exchange, pay, trade and settle between fiat and digital currencies.

Grounded in its values of “Open, Secure and Licensed,” the company said it is working to build an ecosystem that connects global markets and enables instant, seamless and compliant value movement worldwide.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
