Emirates NBD, a bank owned by the Dubai government, is starting to offer cryptocurrency trading through its digital banking subsidiary Liv.
Liv is allowing its customers to buy and sell cryptocurrency through a new app, Liv X, according to information released Thursday.
Dubai has positioned itself as a crypto hub for years, offering clear rules for companies seeking licenses. This has led to major exchanges such as Binance, Crypto.com, and OKX being approved.
In this context, the Dubai government’s own bank has taken steps to provide cryptocurrency trading services.
Liv offers its crypto service using infrastructure operated by Aquanow, a digital asset platform licensed by Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA).
Standard Chartered-backed Zodia is providing custody services for Liv’s new offering.
