Web3 technologies are being used in the Middle East and Dubai. Dubai, in particular, has been on the cutting edge of this trend. The Dubai Blockchain Strategy, announced in 2016, aims to make Dubai the world's first blockchain-powered government by 2020. As a result, several blockchain-based initiatives have been established, including the Dubai Blockchain Business Registry, the Dubai Blockchain Payment System, and the Dubai Blockchain Platform. These initiatives have attracted significant public and private investment, demonstrating the region's strong commitment to blockchain technology.

Dubai is positioning itself as a
global pioneer of the metaverse with
its recent launch of a Metaverse
Strategy. The emirate is already home
to over 1,000 companies in the
metaverse and blockchain sector.
Dubai is the world's first and only
jurisdiction with a dedicated virtual
assets regulator, and establishing the
VARA regime symbolises Dubai's
confidence in the sector's potential.
Dubai's Virtual Assets Law ensures
investor protection, economic
security, and market transparency,
backed by fully traceable and non-
deletable transaction records that
fulfil AML-CFT considerations for
global interoperability in the rapidly
growing domain
Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory
Authority (VARA) formulated a Test-
Adapt-Scale model that has proven
to be a compelling proposition for
global future economy companies,
and among the significant players
moving to Dubai to join VARA's
exclusive regime are some of the
world's largest and most credible
virtual assets exchanges, such as
Binance, Coinbase, and Bybit.
With new players being attracted, the
sector's current contribution of
$500M to the UAE's economy is set to
increase significantly. The Metaverse
Strategy aims to support more than
40,000 virtual jobs by 2030 and add
$4B to Dubai's economy in five years.
Dubai is also a global leader in
technology, home to some of the
world's most robust and dependable
infrastructure. Dubai's specialist
Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority
(VARA) has attracted several big
names in the world of Web3,
including cryptocurrency platforms,
blockchain companies, and
tokenisation firms. The city seeks to
become one of the top 10 metaverse
economies and a global pioneer in
adopting digital solutions, aiming to
increase the number of blockchain
companies by five times.

Another reason for the region's
growth is its relatively untapped pool
of skilled talent, including blockchain
developers, designers, and marketing
professionals. In addition, the region
has made significant investments in
infrastructure, including high-speed
internet connectivity and cloud
computing, which are essential to
support decentralised networks
Animoca Brands recently signed a
strategic partnership with the Middle
East-based Manga Productions to
launch Web3 products in the MENA
region, recognizing the potential of
the young and dynamic population in
the region for new technologies
On the other hand, Junaid Gulzar, Co-
Founder and CTO of metaverse real
estate company Windfall, cited the
region’s openness to innovation and
the booming real estate market as key
motivators. Despite its riches, the
MENA region has shown no ego,
establishing strategic partnerships
with expert external partners to
ensure it continues to grow and
dominate in the Web3 and metaverse
space.
Now, if we shift our focus to the MENA
region as a whole….
It has emerged as a global leader in
the Web3 and metaverse space, with
predictions of a $15 billion increase in
GDP by 2030. Saudi Arabia and the
UAE alone are expected to gain $7.6
billion and $3.3 billion in GDP
annually, respectively
One reason for this growth is a
convenient legal framework for
investing in digital assets. The UAE
establishes a clear regulatory
framework governing virtual asset
trading and investment.
Similarly, the Financial Services and
Markets Regulations 2015 amended
its regulatory framework in the Abu
Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) in 2018
to include crypto services. Moreover,
the government’s support structure
offered in the MENA region attracts
local and foreign companies to Web3.
Singapore-based DWF Labs, a digital
asset trading service provider, has
targeted the MENA region for global
expansion, citing a clear regulatory
framework that instils confidence in
investors.

In 2023, web3 security is predicted to
be a billion-dollar problem. With
decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-
fungible tokens (NFTs) becoming
increasingly popular, robust security
measures are paramount.
While web3 offers new opportunities
for decentralization and
transparency, it also opens up new
avenues for cyber attacks. The
immutability of blockchain means
that once a transaction is recorded, it
cannot be altered or deleted. This
makes blockchain an attractive
target for hackers looking to exploit
vulnerabilities in smart contracts,
decentralized applications (dApps),
and wallets.
Another issue is the centralization of
some aspects of Web3. For example,
centralized exchanges still play a
crucial role in the buying and selling
of cryptocurrencies, despite the goal
of decentralization. This means that
they are still vulnerable to hacks and
security breaches, as we have seen in
the past
One of the main challenges facing
Web3 security is the need for more
standards and best practices. As the
industry is still relatively new,
developers are still learning to create
secure smart contracts and dApps.
This means that many currently used
contracts and applications may have
vulnerabilities that hackers can
exploit.
To address these issues, there are
several initiatives underway. One is
the development of Web3 security
standards and best practices. The
Ethereum Foundation, for example,
has released a guide on secure smart
contract development, providing
developers with guidelines on
creating contracts that are less
susceptible to attacks.
Another initiative is the development
of decentralized exchanges (DEXs)
that do not rely on centralized servers
or intermediaries. This reduces the
risk of hacks and breaches and helps
to achieve the goal of
decentralization.
Rising Security Concerns in Web3

6. 05
Finally, there is also a growing market for Web3 security services. Like we at
QuillAudits offer security audits and penetration testing for smart contracts and
dApps, helping to identify vulnerabilities before hackers can exploit them.
In conclusion, Web3 security will be a significant challenge facing the industry in
2023. With the rise of DeFi and NFTs, the need for robust security measures is
more critical than ever.
However, with the development of standards and best practices, decentralized
exchanges, and security services, the industry is taking steps to address these
challenges and ensure that web3 is a safe and secure ecosystem for all users.

Growth and Adoption of Web3 Technologies
in the MENA Region
Despite the turbulence in the
markets, the Middle East and North
Africa (MENA) region is witnessing a
surge in cryptocurrency activity, and
it now accounts for 9.2% of global
cryptocurrency transactions.
However, as with any new technology,
crypto has attracted criminals and
fraudsters, and crypto crime
skyrocketed last year.
In Egypt, digital currencies are being
used to protect against currency
devaluation, while in the UAE, banks
and financial institutions are showing
interest and innovation in the space,
along with the retail and consumer
segment. Overall, crypto represents a
significant advancement in financial
technology and is poised to
revolutionise financial services.
According to experts, the drivers of
adoption in the region are enabling
regulatory frameworks, consumer
protection, and support for
establishing crypto businesses,
among other things. Digital
currencies are being used for savings,
and the UAE aims to position itself as
a global crypto hub
Saudi Arabia has adopted a positive
attitude towards digital assets and
blockchain technology, and the
country's millennials and Gen Zers are
investing in cryptocurrency.
