ADGM Unveils Draft Crypto Mining Rules, Seeks Industry Feedback

Published at 2026-01-28 10:30:11

The ADGM Registration Authority (RA) on Wednesday released Discussion Paper No. 1 of 2026, opening a consultation on proposed guidance for crypto mining activities carried out within or from ADGM. The paper invites industry stakeholders to comment on rules covering operational standards, risk management, and legal responsibilities for miners operating in the Abu Dhabi Global Market jurisdiction. This consultation is a positive step toward regulatory clarity in a region courting digital-asset infrastructure. Clear guidance could help attract compliant operators, address energy and AML/CFT concerns, and set expectations for licensing, cybersecurity, and environmental practices. Stakeholder feedback will shape the final framework and could influence how mining firms structure operations in the UAE's international financial centre.
