🏛 Clear, Active Policy for Digital Assets
Dubai’s regulatory body, VARA, has published workable guidelines for licensing and compliance. Crypto gains remain untaxed, and Web3 firms can open bank accounts with relative ease. Startups and established players treat the emirate as a launchpad rather than a test bed.
💼 Bitcoin ETFs and Institutional Momentum
Institutional participation tightens its grip this year. Bitcoin ETFs headline the agenda, with fund managers and allocators discussing flows, custody standards, and risk models. Expect data‑driven sessions that measure how fast traditional capital is integrating digital assets.
🧱 NFTs With Defined Utility
Projects on‑site apply NFTs to loyalty, ticketing, entertainment access, and digital identity. Panelists focus on user journeys and revenue models, leaving collectible hype in the rear‑view mirror.
🎮 Web3 Gaming Builds Persistent Economies
Studios showcase full games that include player‑owned assets, built‑in marketplaces, and retention metrics. Conversations centre on gameplay loops, sustainable token sinks, and cross‑platform interoperability.
🪙 Tokenisation Brings Real‑World Assets On‑Chain
Startups demo products that fractionalise gold, property, and fine art. Legal wrappers, KYC flows, and audit trails receive as much attention as on‑chain mechanics, signalling a maturing asset class.
🚀 Startups Present Products With Traction
Early‑stage teams arrive with shipping roadmaps, customer numbers, and capital raises in motion. Investor interest appears concentrated around infrastructure, compliance tooling, and consumer UX layers.
🎙 Builders Share Practical Roadmaps
Layer‑1 architects, DeFi protocol designers, and gaming founders outline milestones, hiring plans, and technical leaps. Sessions read less like prediction panels, more like progress reports.
