Ming Shing Group Invests $47 Million in Bitcoin to Boost Liquidity and Asset Value

Hong Kong-based Ming Shing Group, a public construction firm, has invested $47 million in Bitcoin as a short-term strategy to enhance liquidity and asset value. The company acquired 500 BTC at an average price of $94,375 per BTC.

Investment Strategy and Company Background

Ming Shing Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Lead Benefit, made the purchase using idle reserves. The company views this investment as an opportunity to capture the potential appreciation of Bitcoin and increase its assets. Lead Benefit was incorporated in December 2024, with Ming Shing as its ultimate shareholder.

“The company considers that the Bitcoin market is highly liquid and the Bitcoins can be easily disposed to fund the company’s wet trade works business, if required.”

Market Reaction and Future Prospects

The announcement pushed Ming Shing’s Nasdaq-listed shares (MSW) up by 10%, reaching $7.91. Wenjin Li, director of Ming Shing, expressed confidence that this investment “will not only drive our growth but also create substantial value for our shareholders.”

Hong Kong’s Crypto Landscape

Hong Kong is exploring ways to embrace cryptocurrency. Legislator Wu Jiexhuang recently suggested that the region consider adding Bitcoin to its national reserves to strengthen financial security. Key considerations for regulators include studying the effects of U.S.-issued Bitcoin exchange-traded funds on the market before making any decisions about including BTC in reserves.
