Hashkey Group, an eminent digital asset financial services company in the Asia-Pacific region, has received a license from virtual active service provider (VASP) from Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA).
The license, granted to its operational entity Hashkey Mena Fze, marks the official launch of Hashkey Global Men to the United Arab Emirates and opens the way to the strategic expansion of the group in the Middle East.
With the license, Hashkey is authorized to provide virtual asset exchange services and broker services in Dubai and customers from the emirate.
Hashkey Global Mena to provide Fiat-to-Crypto services
Hashkey Global Mena will provide a range of services adapted to institutional and high net customers, including the Fiat-to-Crypto secure on and the ramps outside the USD and AED.
The Fiat operations of the platform are supported by Standard Charterd, which offers rationalized deposit and withdrawal services via its advanced banking infrastructure.
In addition, the platform will offer over-the-counter trading services (OTC) with the support for the best cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Stablecoins USDT and USDC.
These services promise instant execution, zero shift and flexible settlement options for major trades, all safeguarded in the regulatory framework of Vara.
“As licensed platform, Hashkey Global MENA adopts institutional needs by offering a regulated and secure gateway for Fiat-Crypto transactions,” said Sherif Sanad, Director of the Hashkey Global Mena.
“Our expansion in the region underlines our commitment to compliance, innovation and the service of the rapidly growing cryptography economy of MENA.”
Water is currently the third largest cryptographic economy in the MENA region, and Hashkey aims to meet the growing demand for regulated digital asset services.
The company plans to continue to develop new products in VARA’s compliance directives, strengthening its presence in the region.
Hashkey Group already has licenses in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and Bermuda, and has an ALP recording in Ireland. He also pursues a Mica license in the EU.
The Hashkey Global Mena Exchange is expected to be posted on May 19.
Water continues to attract cryptographic companies
This decision comes as the United Arab Emirates continue to position themselves as a regional center for blockchain innovation and cryptographic finance, with regulatory clarity attracting the main global players.
As indicated, an investment company supported by the State in Abu Dhabi should make an investment of $ 2 billion in an crypto exchange binance using USD1, a stablecoin developed by World Liberty Financial – a cryptographic company closely linked to the Trump family.
Experts claim that the United Arab Emirates are about to become a key destination for Crypto and Stable companies in search of newly implemented European Union (EU) in the Crypto-Astets (Mica).
The regulatory framework, which took full effect on December 30, creates significant challenges for cryptographic companies in the 27 -members block, which has made a lot of way to consider moving, according to industry experts.
Among its strict requirements, small stablecoin transmitters must hold 30% of their reserves in commercial banks based on low -risk EU, while the main players like Tether are faced with a mandate to maintain 60% or more in similar institutions.
