The Financial Services Regulatory Authority (“FSRA”) has announced revisions to its Anti-Money Laundering and Sanctions Rules and Guidance (“the AML Rulebook”).
The FSRA has made revisions that clarify the requirements that previously appeared in the AML Rulebook, reflecting the federal regulatory framework the UAE has put in place to combat money-laundering, the financing of terrorism and proliferation financing and ensure compliance with targeted financial sanctions. In particular, minor drafting changes have been made to the provisions relating to wire transfers in order to provide greater clarity that the FATF “Travel Rule” applies to Virtual Assets.

This is one of the major reasons why we see investor and crypto lovers going to dubia to have a nice time there. There government knows how to attract tourists to the country and investors that will come to develop there state. If other countries would establish something similar to what the UAE is doing, the world of cryptocurrency world be safe and friendly to everyone, not like the SEC that was trying to send Binance out of the United States for no reason with aggressive sanction.
I am very happy that we have countries that have plan for cryptocurrency investors with a friendly environment for everyone.

I searched for a reliable source for this news and did not find it.

the name of Salvatore Leggiero was mentioned, and I searched for him, and I did not find any news about building a Bitcoin project or an experimental model for it.
Unless accurate data appears, I do not think it is true news.

I have read the entire article, but it is a journalistic article of the development of legislation related to cryptocurrencies in Dubai, and it cannot be relied upon as a reference for those who want to know the regulatory framework in that country. Even talking about some laws was very superficial, but from what I understood, laws within the country differ from one emirate to another. And that the non-strict laws are of the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), which is the regulator in the Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC) region, while 6 Emirates do not have clear legislation.https://cointelegraph.com/learn/cryptocurrency-regulation-in-the-uae-and-the-dubai-virtual-assets-law

Dubai is called a crypto heaven for some people. But sooner or later they will regulate crypto 
. In my opinion approach like this is still ok to me, as long as both have benefits like the government can have tax from the crypto company and the customer got protected from it. Win-win solution right? Just like my country Indonesia. It always better to regulate than banning it
