Regarding BitMEX Ventures’ investment, CEO and co-founder Alex Hayes made the following comment, also emphasizing the importance of crypto ramps in the developing world.
“As the first licensed cryptocurrency exchange in the Middle East, Rain has an unprecedented opportunity to tap into the incredible potential that cryptocurrency trading will bring to the region. We believe that Rain will bring greater diversification to Middle-Eastern traders with its exchange offering and experienced team, and we are thrilled to contribute to this defining moment.”
Established in 2018, the exchange will be using the acquired funds to further the development of their infrastructure and expansion of their team.
There are more and more banks in the Middle East that are opening up to fintech development. A recent example would be Iran which legalized crypto mining.
