The Dubai authorities announced the launch of a project that allows residents to pay for public services using cryptocurrencies. The initiative is implemented within the framework of the partnership between the Economic Department of the Emirate and the payment platform Crypto

we are not talking about direct payment to BTC or ETH, but about the integration of cryptocurrencies into the official Dubaipay payment system through third -party processing.

like this arranged:

The user pays for the service in cryptocurrency (for example, USDT);

crypto.com automatically converts the amount of the UAE dirhams at a market rate;

The state institution receives payment in fiat — without risk volatility.

Thus, cryptocurrency is used only as a means of transferring value, and calculations with the authorities take place in national currency.

What does it change:

The availability and convenience for residents, especially those who work or are income in digital Assets

The emirate strengthens the status of global cryptohab, offering real scenarios for the application of technology

the system takes into account the requirements of KYC/Aml, since all operations pass through licensed providers

for comparison: in the majority of countries such mechanisms remain at the level of experiments — Dubai, however, goes to practice.
