Moving forward, the company will assemble a team to support the blockchain-based banking platform, according to Chinese media site Sina Finance. The SFC has granted virtual bank licences to 12 entities so far. On the list is Infinium Limited, a joint venture between Tencent, Industrial and Commerce Bank of China (ICBC) and other two Hong Kong-based institutional investors. Tencent renamed Infinium to Fusion Bank in July after it received the license in May.
