UAE Leads the Way in Crypto Adoption with Bold New Initiatives


When I witness a country taking bold steps toward innovation, it reaffirms my belief in the power of forward-thinking leadership.While some countries are slow to embrace change, others take a cautious approach, navigating through endless law-making procedures. There are also those who resist change until it becomes unavoidable. In this way life itself drags them into the future.  But let’s focus on a model of how things should ideally unfold.


What the United Arab Emirates is doing in the sphere of crypto adoption is truly remarkable.  The country has adopted a series of laws in August that completely transform its economic landscape.


First, UAE bank accounts now allow direct cryptocurrency trading. Specifically, the M2 cryptocurrency exchange has implemented this initiative. The residents of the country can trade cryptos from their bank accounts. On August 19, a Dubai court recognized crypto as valid salary payment. 


Finally, we learned about Tether’s plan to launch dirham stablecoin with UAE partners. According to reports, Tether is collaborating with the UAE’s Phoenix Group and Green Acorn Investments to implement the project. Digital representation of the dirham currency will be fully backed by liquid UAE-based reserves.


We are witnessing how countries are beginning integrating cryptocurrencies into their economies within a legal framework, and the UAE seems to be at the forefront of this movement.

Crypto Exchanges vs SEC Litigation between US Securities and Exchange Commission and major crypto exchanges is ongoing.  The SEC, following the position of its head Gary Gensler, accuses Coinbase, Binance and Kraken of illegal work as unlicensed securities trading activities. So far, illegal trading in securities is the commission’s favorite accusation. Usually, it classified cryptocurrency to securities without any special checks and expertise. If there is cryptocurrency, then it is a security. The exception is Bitcoin, but it is a dubious asset that suspicious people use for dark causes. However, Ripple managed to prove in court that at least monets traded on the stock exchange cannot be considered cryptocurrencies. And then there is the decision of the futures commission that defined Ethereum as commodities. In the current situation, a court ruling in favor of the SEC would mean an additional control circuit over the crypto business.  In fact, crypto exchanges fight for the right to

Tether leaves the crypto community When we talk about cryptocurrencies, we imagine something independent, free from traditional finance. This is true, but only for certain cryptocurrencies that are fully decentralized. A fine example is Bitcoin. This is really a classic cryptocurrency, almost independent from the intervention of third parties, including developers. Indeed, the impossibility of such interference was embedded in the original ideas of Satoshi Nakamoto. That was the main ideological principle, and the blockchain helped put it into practice. We now see that principle being violated. CEO of Tether (USDT) Paolo Ardoino stated that he aims to become a world-class partner of the US to help "expand US$ hegemony". As a real "help", Tether froze $435M in user wallets at the request of American law enforcement.  Tether stated that it considered such a policy a sign of foresight and vigilance. In fact, this is an excellent example of short-sighted politics. The c

Who Owns the Mr. 100 Cryptowallet and What Does Upbit Have to Do With it?  Over the past two months, I've been keeping a close eye on the unusual activity of one Bitcoin wallet nicknamed "Mr. 100." This wallet regularly received deposits of exactly 100 BTC every few days, which led to certain thoughts. Upon deeper analysis, I noticed natural connections between this address and the well-known wallets of the large South Korean exchange Upbit. Having studied the transactions, I came to the conclusion that the so-called “Mr. 100” is highly likely to be a cold wallet of this exchange. The wallet in question , identified by the address "1Ay8v" with a balance of 52,996.88 BTC, has attracted the attention of other crypto enthusiasts. Debate about its origins has reignited on social media, sparking speculation about the identity of its owner, including rumors of a connection to a Qatari billionaire. The key observations that led me to make this assumption were the follo
