INTANGIBLE ASSETS

6. INTANGIBLE ASSETS


On May 1, 2020, the Company launched CCM v3.0, which creates a new value cycle system of online shopping malls with a real-name blockchain system. After the launch of CCM v3.0, the Company reclassified this prepaid asset into intangible assets in the second quarter of 2020, which will be amortized over 10 years.


Also included in the intangible assets is land use right. The government of the PRC, its agencies and collectives hold all land ownership. Companies or individuals are authorized to use the land only through land usage rights granted by the PRC government. Land usage rights can be transferred upon approval by the land administrative authorities of the PRC (State Land Administration Bureau) upon payment of the required land transfer fee. Accordingly, the Company paid in advance for land usage rights. Prepaid land usage rights are being amortized and recorded as lease expenses using the straight-line method over the terms of the leases, which range from 40 to 50 years. The amortization expense was $0.09 million and $0.59 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.


The following table sets intangible assets of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
