Hong Kong, 23rd January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, ChainUp has been announced as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026, set to take place from April 20 to 23, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The partnership underscores ChainUp’s commitment to supporting Asia’s premier crypto gathering and advancing institutional adoption of digital asset infrastructure across the region.
ChainUp is a leading global provider of digital asset solutions that empowers businesses to navigate the complexities of the evolving Web3 ecosystem. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Singapore since 2019, ChainUp has grown into a trusted technology partner serving a diverse clientele—from blockchain-native Web3 companies to established financial institutions looking to integrate digital assets into their operations.
Comprehensive Infrastructure for Digital Assets
What sets ChainUp apart is its comprehensive suite of B2B solutions covering virtually every aspect of digital asset infrastructure. The company offers crypto exchange solutions for both centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) platforms, liquidity-as-a-service to ensure smooth trading operations, and institutional-grade custody services for secure asset storage.
ChainUp’s MPC (Multi-Party Computation) wallet-as-a-service provides businesses with regulation-ready features, scalability for large user bases, and the ability to safely engage with DeFi protocols for yield generation. The platform employs enhanced governance controls that allow institutions to confidently manage digital assets while maintaining compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks.
The company’s KYT (Know Your Transaction) crypto tracing analytics tool offers AI-powered monitoring for risk control and anti-money laundering compliance—a critical capability as regulators worldwide impose stricter oversight on digital asset flows. In fact, ChainUp was recently named Transaction Monitoring Solution Provider of the Year, recognizing the effectiveness of its compliance infrastructure.
Beyond trading and custody, ChainUp offers asset tokenization services that enable the conversion of real-world assets into blockchain-based tokens, crypto asset management solutions regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and Web3 infrastructure including mining, staking, Bitcoin restaking, and blockchain APIs. The breadth of these offerings positions ChainUp as a one-stop-shop for institutions seeking to build or expand their digital asset capabilities.
Industry Recognition and Track Record
ChainUp’s technical reliability and institutional focus have earned significant industry recognition. The company was named Best Technology Solution Provider for Digital Assets APAC at the Digital Assets Awards 2025 by The Digital Banker, reflecting the accelerating market shift in Asia-Pacific from speculative innovation to a core pillar of institutional finance.
More recently, ChainUp was recognized among Singapore’s Top Fintech Companies 2026 in an inaugural ranking by Tech in Asia and Statista, which analyzed over 500 firms to identify innovators truly changing how finance works. The company also achieved SOC 2 Type 2 compliance through a rigorous independent audit by Deloitte, validating the effectiveness of its controls for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.
Since its founding, ChainUp has served more than 1,000 clients across 30 countries, reaching over 60 million end-users. The company maintains offices around the world and has achieved five internationally recognized security accreditations, demonstrating its commitment to safeguarding client assets in an industry where security breaches can be catastrophic.
Notably, ChainUp’s leadership includes Mr. Ooi as Chairman and Non-Executive Director—the former Chairman of the Board of Directors of OCBC Bank, Singapore, who also served as a Special Advisor to Bank Negara Malaysia and previously as Deputy Governor. This traditional finance pedigree brings credibility and regulatory expertise to ChainUp’s digital asset operations.
