\"Dubai<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

UAE global leader of crypto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to Rifad Mahasneh from OFX, the world\u2019s second biggest cryptocurrency exchange, it was the country\u2019s innovation and regulation that prompted the company to move to the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you’re in crypto, this is a place where the biggest traders are, the market makers are here, so it makes complete sense,\u201d he said. \u201cIn terms of regulatory clarity, this is one of the best places in the world while other markets have yet to figure out how to regulate crypto. The UAE went ahead and regulated crypto in the most innovative fashion and kept up with the innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They didn’t just stop with the first iteration of regulation. They kept up with the industry and continued to innovate and also keep up with the regulations as we go, which is very important in a very fast-moving industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that it has also become increasingly easy to find \u201cexperienced talent\u201d in the UAE. \u201cFive years ago, finding talent in the crypto space wasn’t easy but today, you’re finding experienced talent that operated in regulated platforms, so it’s much better and you have access to global talent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faisal Al Hammadi, managing partner at Further Ventures that invests in Web 3, said UAE has seen a lot of cryptocurrency-related companies grow. \u201cOne key product that was launched about two years ago was a large-scale Bitcoin mining company called Zero2,\u201d e said. \u201cThe UAE now has about 500 megawatts of Bitcoin mining, and it’s probably the largest here in the region. We have a partnership with a company called Marathon Digital, which is a publicly listed company among the top five miners globally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Despite the strides it has made, companies in the crypto space in the country are facing some challenges. \u201cWe’d like to see innovation coming in this sector from the UAE,\u201d said Rifad. \u201cIn the first phase, a lot of global platforms like ours moved here but your third-party vendors or partners are global or non-UAE companies. There’s a lot of opportunity that can come out of here and more founders need to be encouraged to set up in this space.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Mathew, the biggest challenge the authority has faced is ensuring quality. \u201cAt the moment, there’s a significant variation in the quality of applications that we see,\u201d he said. \u201cThat slows the process down. Quality is really, really important. We’re not compromising on that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
