Gains

The year 2023 marked a significant resurgence for global crypto markets, with prices and market sentiment rebounding positively after the tumultuous events of the previous year. 
According to the latest insights from the Chainalysis report ‘2023 Cryptocurrency Gains by Country’, the global crypto investor community collectively achieved total gains of US$37.6 billion throughout the year. While this figure falls short of the remarkable US$159.7 billion gains witnessed during the 2021 bull market, it signifies a remarkable recovery from the estimated losses of US$127.1 billion experienced in 2022.

One noteworthy observation from the report is the positive trend observed among investors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In fact, UAE investors realized capital gains totaling US$204 million from their crypto investments, showcasing a robust performance within the region. 
Additionally, investors in Saudi Arabia cashed out gains of US$351 million, positioning the UAE as the second-highest in the GCC in terms of absolute gains realized by crypto investors. None of the other GCC countries made it to Chainalysis’ list of the top 50 countries globally. 
Delving deeper into the analysis, Chainalysis identified Bitcoin (BTC) as the preferred cryptocurrency among UAE investors, accounting for a substantial 70% of the total gains realized in 2023. 
Ethereum (ETH) emerged as the second most popular cryptocurrency, contributing 24% of the gains for UAE investors. 
Interestingly, XRP, the native token of the Ripple network, secured the third position, albeit with only 3% of the gains on UAE investors’ deposits throughout 2023. 
Kim Grauer, Director of Research at Chainalysis, provided insights into UAE investors’ preferences, noting a level of maturity among them. Grauer stated, “The outsized popularity of Bitcoin and Ethereum indicates a level of maturity among UAE investors. The community is clearly backing well-established digital assets with steady and proven performance, rather than more speculative cryptocurrencies.” 
Furthermore, the report highlighted the collective gains realized by crypto investors in countries such as India, the Philippines, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, ranking 6th, 20th, 25th, and 49th respectively on the global top 50 list. 
Grauer emphasized the positive implications of these countries’ strong appetite for digital assets on the UAE’s crypto community, hinting at greater potential for crypto-facilitated cross-border transactions. 
Looking ahead to 2024, Grauer expressed optimism about the global crypto market outlook, citing encouraging trends from the past year. With notable assets like Bitcoin achieving all-time highs and increased institutional adoption, the outlook for 2024 appears promising. 
Grauer concluded, “If these trends continue, we may see gains more in line with those we saw in 2021.” 
In light of the insights provided by the report, the UAE emerges as a pivotal player in the global crypto landscape. With investors realizing significant gains totaling US$204 million from their cryptocurrency investments, the UAE’s regulatory environment stands out as a key driver of this success. 
With UAE investors demonstrating maturity and a preference for established digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, their confidence in the regulatory framework is evident. This framework fosters stability and trust in the crypto market, positioning the UAE as a trusted and promising destination for crypto investments. 
The UAE’s proactive approach to regulation, coupled with its ideal environment for crypto companies, positions it as a rising crypto hub with promising prospects for future growth and innovation. 
It is also worth noting that following the annual meeting of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in Paris, the UAE achieved a significant milestone by officially <a href="https://www.unlock-bc.com/118626/uae-exit-fatf-grey-list-virtual-asset-plan/" class="ek-link">exiting the enhanced follow-up stage, commonly known as the grey list</a>, in its ongoing efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. 
This accomplishment concludes a journey that began in 2020 when the UAE faced heightened scrutiny, demonstrating the nation’s unwavering commitment to aligning its financial ecosystem with FATF standards. Through a thorough evaluation process, it has been confirmed that the UAE has fulfilled all requirements outlined in the action plan proposed by FATF following the 2020 mutual evaluation report. 
This successful exit from the grey list underscores the UAE’s adherence to FATF’s forty recommendations, considered the industry gold standard, and highlights the effectiveness of the country’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing framework, as assessed by FATF’s comprehensive criteria.
