Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and Isle of Man (Britain)—21 September 2022—Seed Group, a company of the Private Office of Sheikh Saeed bin Ahmed Al Maktoum, has entered into a strategic partnership with CoinCorner, a leading British financial services company facilitating the purchase and sale of Bitcoin across the world.

As part of the agreement, Seed Group will help CoinCorner expand its operations in the emirates and the wider Middle East, reach the right audience, access top decision-makers in the government as well as private sectors, and market their Bitcoin transaction solutions and lightning services effectively in the region. The fintech company, on the other hand, will focus on establishing a user-friendly platform wherein UAE residents can buy, sell, send, receive, and store Bitcoin, besides offering local businesses solutions to deal in cryptocurrency.

According to a recent study by Forex, the UAE is among the top four countries that are most ready for cryptocurrency adoption. With a growing number of blockchain startups and favourable legislation and taxation policies, digital currency is fast becoming popular in the region. The UAE’s crypto market is the third largest in the Middle East, with a transaction volume of about $26 billion. The market grew by an incredible 1,500% in 2020–21 over the previous financial year.

Hisham Al Gurg, CEO of Seed Group and the Private Office of Sheikh Saeed bin Ahmed Al Maktoum, said “Apart from individuals, a large number of companies are ready to embrace Bitcoin and other digital currencies as legal tender for future transactions. The UAE wants to offer a growth-oriented environment to fintech companies by establishing an ecosystem for digital currencies. Companies dealing in cryptocurrencies hold huge potential in the Emirates’ digital economy.”

Founded in 2014, CoinCorner has quickly emerged as one of the leading British-based Bitcoin exchanges. It has worked extensively with the Isle of Man Government on framing Bitcoin-friendly regulations and making digital currency an acceptable mode of transaction across the UK.
