“I always encourage governments to take a more relaxed approach.” He explained that when governments don’t over-regulate, businesses and technology can grow freely and thrive.

Middle Eastern Countries Leading the Way

CZ pointed out that Dubai is a great example of how a crypto-friendly approach can benefit a country. He shared that it only took him 24 hours to get a golden visa in Dubai. He further mentioned that Binance received a full operating license in Dubai in 2024.
