Ras Al Khaimah, one of the seven Arab Emirates, has unveiled plans to launch RAK Digital Assets Oasis (RAK DAO), a digital and virtual asset market free trading zone, to attract crypto and virtual asset companies and establish itself as a global crypto and digital asset investment destination. This announcement was made at the Blockchain Life 2023 Conference.

RAK DAO will be the world’s first free trading zone exclusively for digital and virtual asset companies. It will be a purpose-built free zone that encourages innovation in virtual assets, dedicated to service providers in emerging technologies such as blockchain, NFTs, metaverse, Web3, DApps, and DAOs.

Ras Al Khaimah is following in the footsteps of Dubai and other Emirates that are making moves to encourage investments in digital and virtual assets. Dubai took a significant step in March 2022 by establishing laws to regulate virtual assets and creating a regulatory authority to enforce them.

While approving the Dubai Virtual Asset Regulation Law, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rasheed, prime minister and ruler of the United Arab Emirates, tweeted that the goal is to establish the UAE and Dubai’s position as key players in designing the future of virtual assets globally.

The RAK DAO aims to align with the prime minister’s words of making the UAE a leading hub for innovation in the virtual assets space. Sheikh Mohammed bin Humaid bin Abdullah Al Qasimi believes the project will boost UAE’s position as the leading destination for virtual and digital assets innovation. 

He said, “We are building the free zone of the future for companies of the future. As the world’s first free zone solely dedicated to digital and virtual asset companies, we look forward to supporting the ambitions of entrepreneurs from around the world with our progressive, supportive, and quick-to-adapt approach and our innovation-enabling environment”.

Irina Heaver, a Dubai-based crypto lawyer, tweeted in support of the project saying that the RAK DAO caters to the needs of crypto entrepreneurs and founders.
