UAE leading in crypto regulation, say experts

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is leading the way in regulating cryptocurrencies and digital assets, according to experts in the field. They believe that the country could have a regulatory framework for the sector in place within the next three to five years. The regulation is expected to provide investors with a greater sense of security and safety, while also protecting the integrity of the market. Binance’s Global Head of Market Surveillance, Vladimir Contreras, and Solidus Labs’ Co-Founder and CXO, Chen Arad, have both voiced the need for a proper regulatory framework to be implemented in the UAE.

Contreras believes that having clear rules in place can make investors feel more secure and confident, making the country a more attractive place to invest. He also said that the UAE and the whole industry are ready for regulation and that the recent regulatory and industry innovations happening in the country will benefit its economy.

Meanwhile, Arad believes that the implementation of a regulatory framework will take at least five years to devise and implement in the Gulf country. However, he also stated that the UAE is ahead of the curve in terms of regulation and that it will become a very important hub for crypto after this bull market. He added that the industry is thirsty for regulatory clarity and that Solidus Labs has released a detailed compliance playbook for companies to utilize their solution in compliance with the regulation. For this to happen, there need to be clear regulatory requirements, which are not given in many other places.

The regulatory clarity could also increase investor confidence and participation in the sector, leading to increased economic growth and development for the UAE.
