Nexo, a company offering digital asset services, has won initial approval as a licensed entity in Dubai from the region’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), it announced Tuesday.

Receiving a full license involves three stages: an initial provisional permit, a preparatory license, and an operating license. Nexo’s regional entity, Nexo DTC, is seeking to win full approval for Lending & Borrowing, Management & Investment, and Broker-Dealer activities.

Dubai is the most populous city in the UAE, and along with the nation’s capital, Abu Dabhi, it has been trying to attract financial institutions as it vies to become a global crypto hub. While VARA’s public record register does not show Nexo DTC having won an initial approval yet, the register is usually updated within a few days of such developments.

“Nexo is enthusiastic about the pursuit of new market strategies aligned with the transformative guidance of Dubai’s Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority,” said Kalin Metodiev, co-founder and managing partner at Nexo.

Previously, Nexo agreed to pay $45 million to the SEC for failing to register the offer and sale of its Earn Interest Product (EIP). But it has also sought $3 billion in damages from Bulgaria for bringing it disrepute after the nation’s investigation found no evidence against the company.

CT3 comienza los preparativos de su ecosistema para el lanzamiento de la economía CT3GB

CT3 ha anunciado el inicio de los preparativos integrales para la futura listación del token CT3GB. La empresa está escalando su infraestructura de almacenamiento de datos, creando reservas financieras y técnicas, y preparando su propia economía tokenizada, donde CT3GB será el principal activo de liquidación de la plataforma. Simultáneamente, se está realizando la transición a una nueva arquitectura de almacenamiento basada en contratos inteligentes especializados, y se llevará a cabo una auditoría independiente de toda la infraestructura central antes de la listación. La compañía subraya que la sostenibilidad de la economía tokenizada depende del grado de preparación de la infraestructura para operar después de la listación. Por ello, ya está expandiendo su red de almacenamiento, aumentando la capacidad computacional y construyendo reservas. El programa Storage Contracts es una herramienta clave para este fin, permitiendo aumentar gradualmente la capacidad de la red. CT3GB se utilizará para pagar servicios de almacenamiento, liquidar pagos con proveedores de infraestructura, distribuir recompensas y facilitar operaciones internas, convirtiéndose en un elemento fundamental del ecosistema CT3 Cloud. La preparación para la listación forma parte de la estrategia a largo plazo de CT3 para crear una infraestructura de almacenamiento de datos autónoma con su propio modelo económico.
