While the run of aforementioned crypto-scandals hasn’t helped with blockchain’s reputation, Cullen and Amatulli are keen to point out that this is just one of the many potential ways that this developing technology can be applied.
After the USA-UAE Alliance™ launches at the Emirates Financial Tower this March, the team is aiming to nurture dialogue related to the whole suite of Web3 technologies. This is expected to include everything from the technological infrastructure needed to support transfers and transactions on the blockchain through to more altruistic examples such as tokens that help underbanked citizens accumulate value through rent payments.
As with crypto, much of the regulatory problems stem from the fact that frameworks are playing catch-up with the technology in real-time. With the new alliance, it’s hoped that experts can take a much more proactive approach and have open discussions about both the good and bad realities in a safe environment.
