Sinohope Group reported record August operating figures, with assets under management (AUM, the total value of client assets managed) exceeding $200 million, up about 30% from the previous month. Platform trading volume surpassed $100 million for a second consecutive month, and both measures reached new monthly highs. The results reflect continued demand from institutional and high-net-worth clients for digital asset services, with market attention increasingly focused on asset security, compliant custody and professional trade execution. Demand is expanding beyond trading into asset allocation, custody, liquidity management and broader wealth management. Sinohope Research said August market activity supported its earlier view that digital assets remained in a high cost-performance range, while noting that short-term volatility could still be influenced by interest-rate expectations, geopolitics and regulatory policy. Earlier reporting referred to the company as New Huo Group (01611.HK) and its research unit as New Huo Research Institute.
