Adding to Goals of Global Expansion

On the 27t of December 2019, the Huobi Group announced that the company was launching a new fiat gateway. This gateway will allow investors situated in Indonesia to make use of the country’s IDR to trade in over 250 different forms of cryptocurrency available to its Indonesian arm.
