UAE’s Specialized Crypto Regulation Stands Out, Says Fireblocks Policy Director

The UAE’s approach to cryptocurrency regulation is gaining attention for its effectiveness, driven by specialized teams focused solely on digital assets. Dea Markova, Policy Director at Fireblocks, highlighted this unique selling point during TOKEN2049 in Dubai. "You have a team that is dedicated specifically to the regulation of digital assets," Markova noted, emphasizing how this specialization aligns emerging technologies like tokenization with traditional financial safeguards.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s regulatory frameworks are designed to balance innovation with consumer protection and financial stability. This targeted oversight has positioned the UAE as a leader in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape, attracting global interest from industry participants.
