Bitcoin Suisse Secures Regulatory Green Light in Abu Dhabi

Under the leadership of CEO Ceyda Majcen, the firm is leveraging its decade-long track record in global digital asset markets to establish a foothold in the Gulf. The company currently manages $3.7 billion in crypto assets and operates as the world’s fourth-largest staking provider, bringing institutional-grade custody and hedging capabilities to local investors.

This move aligns with a broader trend of Swiss-based financial institutions expanding into the UAE’s specialized economic zones. Other entities, including AMINA Bank and Zurich’s Maerki Baumann, have recently secured similar regulatory pathways within Abu Dhabi Global Market. For Bitcoin Suisse, which handles trading, lending, and staking from its base in Zug, this expansion marks a strategic shift to capture demand from family offices and asset managers seeking sophisticated digital asset infrastructure.
