Launching CryptoPotato, MBR is reported to have signed the “virtual asset law” and established an independent authority to oversee the cryptocurrency sector. The law is said to establish the regulatory position of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the industry.

Later the authority will regulate the issuance and trading of virtual assets and tokens. At the same time, the authority also independently authorizes “virtual asset service providers” to manage platforms and virtual asset portfolios while monitoring transactions and preventing price manipulation.

Dubai previously planned to regulate cryptocurrency in December, when Binance teamed up with the Dubai World Trade Center to make it a comprehensive crypto zone to accelerate industry adoption.
