Estimated read time 4 min read

Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, augmented its current strategic partnership with Dubai Multi Commodities Centre, DMCC. This will move Bybit from a key ecosystem partner to an advisory role, yet another high-water mark in its commitment to innovation and growth within Dubai’s vibrant crypto and Web3 industry. This cooperation will mean that, in the next year, Bybit will be one of the real drivers in shaping the crypto scene in Dubai and further putting the city forefront globally in terms of cryptocurrency.

Evolving with forward-thinking regulations and a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem, Dubai has emerged incredibly fast as the central hub for blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. Several blockchain startups and established players worldwide have been drawn to the city for this strategic location, and initiatives have been taken. Bybit’s involvement has, therefore, been instrumental in nurturing this environment by delivering financial support and critical advisory services that guide startups through the intricate environment of the Dubai crypto scene.

Bybit’s New Advisory Role in the Dubai Crypto Scene

The fact that Bybit is entering an advisory role further cements Bybit’s commitment to the Dubai crypto scene.
