With this approval, Gate Dubai can now offer crypto-to-crypto and fiat-to-crypto trades, where users act as direct counterparties. The platform will serve institutional clients, qualified investors, and retail traders, reflecting the company’s broad market approach.
Dr. Han, Founder and CEO of Gate Group, said the license marks a major milestone in the company’s regional growth. “This achievement highlights our commitment to user security, operational transparency, and long-term presence in the Middle East,” he stated.
Gate Dubai is also expanding its local team as it readies for launch. The company is focused on aligning global standards with Dubai’s progressive regulatory environment.
Platform to Serve Diverse Crypto Investors
According to the Head of Gate Dubai, the platform will combine global expertise with local insight. “We’re building a compliant exchange that reflects Dubai’s digital ambitions,” he said. “Our focus remains on delivering secure, efficient, and user-friendly crypto services.”
The license also demonstrates Gate Group’s trust in Dubai’s position as a fast-growing crypto hub. The emirate offers a unique blend of regulatory clarity, innovation, and investment appeal.
As more international players enter the region, Gate Group’s presence reinforces Dubai’s reputation as a leader in blockchain and Web3 technologies.
