Relationship to BitoPro / platform repositioning

A BitoPro Support Center notice states that BitoEX and BitoPro were repositioned under “BitoGroup,” with BitoEX oriented toward international markets while BitoPro continues focusing on Taiwan; it also describes a migration process beginning July 17, 2023, moving Taiwan-dollar (TWD) services and user assets/KYC status toward BitoPro while keeping BitoEX available for historical records.
