UAE investors buy AI dip, keep crypto exposure despite conflict


United Arab Emirates investors are leaning into the artificial intelligence sell-off rather than running from it, despite the regional conflict testing the Gulf’s ambitions to become a global hub for AI and digital assets.

New eToro data shared with Cointelegraph on Wednesday show users in the UAE boosted holdings of software and AI infrastructure names whose share prices fell sharply in the first quarter, suggesting they used the downturn to “buy the dip” rather than broadly de-risk.

The pattern suggests UAE investors are staying exposed to long-term AI and digital-infrastructure themes even as the conflict raises fresh risks for data centers, logistics and cross-border technology build-outs in the Gulf. An April 13 report from Deutsche Bank said the shock is more likely to sharpen rather than derail demand for AI, cybersecurity and sovereign digital infrastructure in the region.

Josh Gilbert, market analyst at eToro, told Cointelegraph that UAE investors became more selective over where they took risk in Q1, and investor behavior was driven by long-term themes rather than a risk-off mindset.

He said the clearest signal was across AI infrastructure and software names, pointing to ServiceNow (+125%), Super Micro Computer (+65%), Adobe (+54%) and Oracle (+38%), which all saw significant increases despite market pressure.

On the crypto side, he said that Strategy Inc. remained the eighth-most-held stock, indicating continued exposure to crypto-linked equities.

#As we move through mid-April 2026, the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector is witnessing a subtle but persistent uptick in activity. With stablecoin transaction volumes hitting new all-time highs and on-chain swap efficiency becoming a primary focus for institutional capital, the "blue-chip" protocols—Uniswap and Curve—are back in the spotlight. However, while the fundamental "pipes" of DeFi are as busy as ever, their native tokens, UNI and CRV, are currently locked in a battle against heavy multi-month resistance. Uniswap (UNI): Liquidity Winner, Technically Still Mid‐Range Source: tradingview The technical picture is one of early improvement rather than a clean trend reversal. While the 7-day SMA ($3.16) is finally supporting the current price, the 30-day ($3.43) and 200-day ($5.20) moving averages remain significant overhead obstacles. The MACD histogram (+0.0057) is turning up from weak levels, but until the MACD line itself crosses into positive territory, the momentum is best described as "bottom-fishing." TradingView Watchlist: Watch for a daily close above the $3.43 (30-day SMA) level. A sustained break here, accompanied by an RSI-14 climb into the 55–65 band, would signal that the bulls are finally wrestling control back from the sellers. Near-Term Scenario Map Base Case (-15% to +25%): UNI continues to oscillate between $2.70 and $4.00. Continued DEX volume strength keeps the floor intact, but the 200-day MA likely caps any rallies without a massive volume surge. Bullish Path (+30% to +50%): A genuine DeFi comeback pushes UNI toward $4.10–$4.75. This would require a confirmed "DeFi Summer 2.0" rotation and clearly positive MACD signals. Bearish Path (-20% to -30%): If capital rotates into newer narratives like AI infrastructure or RWAs, UNI may drift toward $2.50–$2.20. Curve (CRV): Slightly Better Short‐Term Setup, Still Under Heavy Lid Source: tradingview CRV’s indicators are marginally more constructive. The MACD histogram (+0.0016) is rising, and the

📈 Bitcoin Consolidation Before Big Move

Bitcoin is currently trading in a tight range, which indicates a consolidation phase. This type of price behavior often appears before a strong breakout or breakdown.

Volume levels remain steady, showing that traders are waiting for confirmation before entering large positions. This creates pressure that eventually leads to a sharp move once resistance or support is broken.

Technical indicators suggest that Bitcoin is building momentum slowly. If buyers step in with strong volume, a breakout could occur quickly.

On the downside, failure to hold support could lead to a temporary pullback, but overall structure remains bullish.

Ethereum Foundation-funded program exposes 100 DPRK workers in crypto
The Ethereum Foundation said it funded a six-month project that exposed 100 North Korean operatives who had infiltrated Web3 companies under fake identities.
The foundation on Thursday shared a recap of its ETH Rangers program, which was launched in late 2024 to provide "stipends for individuals doing public goods security work" within the ecosystem.
One of the recipients used the capital to build the Ketman Project to focus on investigating “fake developers” embedded within crypto, particularly operatives from the People's Republic of Korea.
During the six-month stipend period, the Ketman Project identified "100 different DPRK IT workers operating within Web3 organizations" and reached out to about 53 projects to alert them about having potentially employed active DPRK operatives.
"This work directly addresses one of the most pressing operational security threats facing the Ethereum ecosystem today," the Ethereum Foundation said.
North Korean operatives have been plaguing the crypto sector, leading to billions worth of crypto stolen over the years. One of the highest-profile hacking groups from North Korea is known as the Lazarus Group.
