Dubai, United Arab Emirates – The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has passed a new law to manage virtual assets, establishing an initial regulatory framework for the country’s cryptocurrency industry on a federal level.

According to Irina Heaver, a cryptocurrency and blockchain lawyer based in the UAE, the new law has several impacts. Heaver explains that the law ensures entities engaging in cryptocurrency activities must obtain licenses and approvals from the new regulatory body. Failure to comply may result in substantial fines, forfeiture of profits, and even criminal investigations by prosecutors.

Every cryptocurrency and Web3 project operating in the UAE must now build a way to comply with the new federal law and all existing laws.

Heaver also noted that this new legislation will help the UAE to be more competitive in the global cryptocurrency market, as it will provide more legal certainty for businesses, and attract more investors. This new legislation will also help the country to combat money laundering, fraud and other financial crimes.

The move by the UAE follows a trend of governments around the world implementing regulations for the cryptocurrency industry, as the market continues to grow and gain mainstream acceptance. It also reflects the UAE’s focus on developing its technology sector, particularly in the areas of blockchain and digital currencies.

This new law will be a major step forward for the UAE’s cryptocurrency industry, providing much-needed oversight and legal clarity for businesses operating in the space. It is expected to promote growth and innovation in the sector, while also protecting consumers and the overall financial system.

This new legislation is one of the most advanced in the world, and will be a model for other countries to follow. The UAE has always been a leader in technology and this legislation will ensure that the country remains at the forefront of the digital economy.
