The UAE Central Bank has enacted Federal Decree No. 6, imposing strict regulations on DeFi, Web3 projects, stablecoin protocols, cross-chain bridges, and middleware. This regulatory framework, effective November 2025, introduces fines up to 10 billion dirhams ($272 million) and potential criminal penalties for non-compliance. This landmark regulation aims to resolve legal uncertainties and streamline compliance for the Real-World Assets (RWA) sector, which is poised for significant growth. The decree's provisions include comprehensive regulatory coverage and clear liability for RWA participants, potentially attracting traditional financial capital. Analysts forecast the RWA market could reach $16 trillion in tokenized assets by 2030, driven by these regulatory advancements.
