Dubai VARA gives VASPs until June 19 to comply with new rulebook guidelines

Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) just dropped the hammer: Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) have until June 19 to comply with its updated rulebook. No extensions, no excuses—just the kind of hard deadline that makes compliance officers sweat into their overpriced lattes.

The move tightens oversight in one of crypto’s most freewheeling hubs, forcing exchanges to choose between playing by the rules or packing their bags. Because nothing says ’regulatory maturity’ like a countdown clock.

Bonus jab: Meanwhile, traditional finance is still trying to figure out if ’blockchain’ is a new type of spreadsheet.
