HCYC is filing via EDGAR Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form F-4, which reflects responses to the comments received by the Staff and certain updated information.

We have set forth below the comments in the Staff’s letter, in bold, and the responses thereto.

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form F-4

General

1. Based on your disclosure on page 146, it appears that the current deadline to complete the merger has been extended to December 4, 2024, the date which has already passed. Please update your disclosure to reflect the date by which you are required to complete the merger or advise.

Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on pages 148, 149, 182, F-19, and F-37 has been revised to address the Staff’s comment.

Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus

2. We note your response to prior comment 3 and reissue in part. Please expand your discussion to describe the rights of non-redeeming shareholders and the events that permit for redemption.

Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on pages [47] and [130] has been revised to address the Staff’s comment.

Risk Factors

AlphaTime is requiring shareholders who wish to redeem their public shares, page 72

3. We note your disclosure on pages 22 and 72 that “[t]he amount of redemptions exercised by AlphaTime shareholders is uncertain, contingent upon many factors out of [y]our control, and are difficult to predict.” If material, please include risk factor disclosure related to this uncertainty in the level of redemptions.

Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and advise the Staff that, while we do not deme the uncertainty in the level of redemptions material as a standalone factor, we have revised our disclosure on page [82] to address the Staff’s comment and add an additional risk factor regarding the post-combination market for the Company’s securities.

Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on page 118 has been revised to address the Staff’s comment

5. Please refer to your disclosure on page 117 and remove the following disclaimers:

● “[t]he HCYC Management Projections are subject to the inherent uncertainties and limitations that can affect long-term projected financial results, and particularly, for HCYC, whether it can achieve its anticipated number of new sales channels and new customers. Accordingly, the usefulness of the HCYC Management Projections is limited and shareholders are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance, if any, on the HCYC Management Projections, and not to rely on these projections in making any decision regarding the Business Combination.”

● “[t]he HCYC Management Projections are being provided for information purposes only and are not and should not be viewed as public guidance regarding the future performance of HCYC.”

Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on page 151 has been revised to address the Staff’s comment.
