We've launched the first regional regulated retail derivatives pilot offering in the UAE

We're pleased to announce that we've launched our regulated retail derivatives products offering, making us the first global exchange to offer retail futures, perpetual contracts, and options within a regulated VARA pilot framework in the UAE.

The launch comes as we continue to see strong momentum in the UAE. The newly introduced regulated crypto retail derivatives offering provides customers with enhanced flexibility and a broader range of trading strategies across different market conditions, marking the first time such crypto derivatives have been made accessible to retail investors in the UAE under a regulated structure.

Whether navigating volatility or seeking to hedge existing positions, customers can now access futures contracts, perpetual contracts, and options with up to 5x leverage, in accordance with local regulatory guidelines. These tools, which have been asked for by our customer base in the UAE, empower retail traders to respond more effectively to market trends, manage risk with greater precision, and tailor their strategies to both bullish and bearish environments, all within a secure, compliant, and high-performance trading environment.

This expansion highlights the UAE’s growing reputation as one of the most forward-looking jurisdictions for digital asset regulation. With Dubai and Abu Dhabi emerging as regional crypto hubs, the country continues to attract global players thanks to its regulatory clarity, supportive infrastructure, and emphasis on innovation.

Since establishing our presence in the UAE, we have actively collaborated with the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority [VARA] and other stakeholders to shape frameworks that support innovation while upholding market integrity and transparency.

As part of our broader regional strategy, we have invested in local hiring, Arabic-language customer support, educational initiatives, and partnerships with Web3 startups and institutions. The derivatives offering will be accompanied by user education tools and risk management features to promote informed, responsible trading.

The launch builds on our rapid growth in the region following our receipt of a Virtual Asset Service Provider [VASP] license from VARA in 2024. We continue to prioritize security, accessibility, and compliance as we expand our role in shaping the Middle East’s evolving digital asset landscape.
