Galaxy, a digital asset management firm, is expanding into the Middle East by establishing a new office and entity in Abu Dhabi under the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The move aims to strengthen existing partnerships and tap into the region's growing financial hub, which is home to sophisticated investors. This expansion follows Galaxy's strong Q3 2025 performance, with $505 million net income and $3.2 billion in equity. The UAE has recently approved several crypto firms, including Binance, Bybit, and stablecoin issuers like Tether and Circle, further solidifying its role as a key market for digital assets.

Galaxy, the digital asset management and infrastructure company, announced an upcoming office and a new arm in Abu Dhabi as part of its push into the Middle East.

In a Wednesday notice, Galaxy said it would establish an entity under the registration authority of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the area’s international financial center. According to Galaxy founder and CEO Mike Novogratz, the move was part of a strategy to expand the company’s existing partnerships and operations.

“The Middle East is a rapidly growing financial hub that is home to some of the world’s most sophisticated investors and innovators,” said Galaxy managing director Bouchra Darwazah. “It has become a particularly influential region for our investors, clients, and portfolio companies, and we believe this office will help establish new opportunities as a leading global digital assets investment and infrastructure firm.”

The Middle East move followed Galaxy reporting a net income of $505 million in the third quarter of 2025, with $3.2 billion in equity. Since 2018, the company has been a major player in staying on top of crypto investments, including its plan to participate in a $1.65 billion Solana (SOL) treasury fund with Cantor Fitzgerald, Multicoin Capital and Jump Crypto.

UAE greenlighted several crypto companies looking to Middle East markets

Over the past year, numerous crypto companies have received regulatory approval to operate in key Middle East markets, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, such as exchanges Binance and Bybit.

Some stablecoin issuers have had similar success. In November, ADGM cleared regulated companies to deploy Ripple’s stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD). This week, the financial center also recognized Tether’s USDt (USDT) as an “accepted fiat-referenced token” and granted Circle regulatory approval to operate as a financial service provider, paving the way for its USDC (USDC) stablecoin.

Altcoin Hacked, Leading to Sharp Price Drop! Also Listed on Major Exchanges!

The price of the NES token plummeted significantly following suspicious activity and large sell-offs detected on the network. Blockchain observers suggested that one wallet minted approximately $55 million worth of NES tokens and began selling them on decentralized exchanges. This selling pressure caused the price of NES to drop by up to 40%. According to the data, the address in question still holds around $18 million worth of NES, indicating that market sell-off pressure may continue. Prior to the incident, it was reported that about $12.35 million worth (62.9 million NES tokens) were transferred to the Ethereum mainnet in the morning (Turkish time), with claims that liquidity was withdrawn and tokens were sold on the market later that evening. However, data regarding the $55 million token mint and the transfer of 62.9 million NES tokens has not been independently confirmed. The NESA team confirmed in a statement that they detected malicious activity exploiting a vulnerability in their Layer 1 network originating from Cosmos EVM. They stated they are working to contain the impact, responded promptly, and will restore services after implementing a software patch and additional measures to ensure secure network operation. Nesa also notified all cryptocurrency exchanges and stated deposit operations will resume after necessary work is completed. The article includes a chart showing the NES price decline following the exploit and concludes with a standard disclaimer that this is not investment advice.

PeaqOS and World ID Integrate ZK Proofs into Autonomous Robots

The integration of PeaqOS and World ID now allows autonomous machines to verify they are interacting with real, unique individuals without collecting names, photos, or other personal data. This update, available via robotic.sh, enables connected devices to directly request and verify World ID proofs. The system leverages zero-knowledge technology, letting a person prove they are human while maintaining the privacy of their identity. This addresses a key challenge for operators of delivery robots, shared machines, and autonomous systems: how to authenticate a user as genuine without relying on insecure PINs, pickup codes, or traditional identity checks that require personal data collection. Instead of obtaining identifying information, a device receives a cryptographic proof that the user is a real person. PeaqOS acts as a coordination layer, allowing devices to utilize World ID via decentralized identifiers and a device marketplace. A robot can request verification, receive a zero-knowledge proof, and register an auditable record of the interaction—all without exposing underlying personal data. The system also supports uniqueness verification, enabling machines to enforce rules like "one item per person" without maintaining user identity databases. A demonstrated use case involves autonomous medicine delivery: a patient verifies via the World App when placing an order, a pharmacist verifies before loading the medication, and the patient verifies again upon delivery so the robot can confirm the recipient is linked to the order before unlocking the compartment. Similarly, promotional robots could ensure one item per person, and shared vending machines could grant access to verified individuals without requiring accounts or personal data. This integration for PeaqOS-powered robots and devices minimizes the identity information collected or stored while allowing autonomous systems to confirm they are interacting with real humans.
