  Dubai has established a favorable regulatory environment for digital currencies. The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) has introduced a comprehensive framework that governs the use and trading of digital currencies. Under this framework, digital currency businesses are required to obtain a license from the DMCC and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations. The DMCC also provides a platform for trading digital currencies, ensuring transparency and security for investors.
