For 11 straight days, institutions bought every single dip.
The numbers that caught my attention:
$16 billion in Bitcoin ETF inflows since US election $1.18 billion single day inflow (biggest of 2025) BTC now at $118K – up 120%
But here's what nobody's talking about:
MENA is sleeping on the biggest wealth transfer in history.
While others are buying Bitcoin ETFs, what are we doing?
🇦🇪 UAE: VARA approved 12 crypto licenses (but mostly for trading)
🇸🇦 KSA: Still "studying" retail crypto while institutions accumulate
🇶🇦 Qatar: Zero official crypto framework
The uncomfortable truth: Every day we delay = money flowing to Western institutions instead of regional wealth funds.
What I'm seeing behind the scenes:
Abu Dhabi sovereign funds quietly exploring Bitcoin allocation Saudi PIF "monitoring" crypto markets (translation: they're buying)
My prediction for 2025: The first GCC country to officially add Bitcoin to reserves will trigger a regional FOMO wave.
Smart money says it'll be UAE. My bet? It happens within 6 months.
The opportunity: Bitcoin is becoming digital gold. The question isn't IF governments will hold it. It's WHICH government will be first.
MENA founders building in crypto space: The licensing window is NOW. Don't wait for $200K Bitcoin to realize the opportunity.
Are you positioned for the crypto wealth transfer?
Building crypto infrastructure in MENA? Let's talk regulatory strategy.
