Super excited to see the Jordan Securities Commission working on a regulatory framework for digital assets. This is a huge step forward for the country, offering Jordanians a legal and secure way to invest in digital currencies instead of relying on unregulated P2P markets. It’s a move that could unlock tremendous opportunities for individuals and the economy as a whole.

Jordan is home to some of the brightest minds in tech across the region, and this latest development offers an incredible opportunity to harness that talent. The lack of regulatory clarity in the past led many, including myself and the CoinMENA founding team, to pursue opportunities abroad. However, with this new framework, I’m optimistic that Jordan can retain its top talent, foster innovation, and unlock exciting new opportunities for its people.

The announcement is clear, sets objectives, explains the economic impact and refers to the UAE and Bahrain's positive experience dealing with virtual assets. I’m incredibly optimistic about what this means for Jordan and look forward to seeing how this unfolds. The future of finance is digital, and Jordan is ready to be part of it!
