Building Dubai to the largest crypto centre in the world
summary
Builds a regional “Crypto Oasis” as an umbrella ecosystem, catalogs 600 entities -> 1,000 by year end, opens a DMCC hub with 170 companies in DMCC already, and uses a local DMCC prop‑trading vehicle to invest 50–100 early‑stage token projects that commit to the region. Focuses on NFTs, metaverse ownership, token investments and co‑investing with other funds, educates banks to onboard crypto, and reports closing about a dozen deals in ten weeks while aiming to turn Dubai into a scalable crypto and blockchain center.
