The Middle East Blockchain Awards (MEBA) returns for its second year following the success of its inaugural edition, with Dubai selected as the host city. The ceremony will take place at the iconic Jumeirah Burj Al Arab on April 29, coinciding with the TOKEN2049 conference. The event will unite industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries to celebrate achievements in blockchain and cryptocurrency.

在首屆版本成功之後，中東區塊鏈獎（MEBA）返回第二年，迪拜被選為東道國。儀式將於4月29日在標誌性的朱美拉·伯吉·阿拉伯（Jumeirah Burj al Arab）舉行，與Token2049會議相吻合。該活動將團結行業領導者，創新者和有遠見的人，以慶祝區塊鍊和加密貨幣的成就。

MEBA 2025 arrives at a pivotal moment amid the rapid acceleration of blockchain adoption across the MENA region. Recent data from Chainalysis positioned the region as the seventh-largest cryptocurrency market in the world. Between July 2023 and June 2024, MENA received an estimated on-chain value of $338.7 billion—accounting for 7.5% of the global transaction volume.

Meba 2025到達了MENA地區區塊鏈採用的快速加速，到達了一個關鍵時刻。鏈分析的最新數據將該地區定位為世界上第七大加密貨幣市場。在2023年7月至2024年6月之間，MENA估計獲得了3387億美元的鏈上價值，佔全球交易量的7.5％。

Notably, the UAE has emerged as a global leader in digital asset adoption. According to Henley & Partners’ latest report, the UAE ranks third worldwide in digital currency usage. Chainalysis data also revealed that the UAE received approximately $34billion in cryptocurrencies between June 2023 and July 2024, experiencing a robust 42% year-on-year growth. This is driven by the country’s progressive approach to blockchain technology, with cities like Dubai establishing themselves as key innovation hubs. 

值得注意的是，阿聯酋已成為數字資產採用的全球領導者。根據Henley＆Partners的最新報告，阿聯酋在數字貨幣使用方面排名第三。連鎖分析的數據還顯示，在2023年6月至2024年7月之間，阿聯酋獲得了約340億美元的加密貨幣，其同比增長了42％。這是由該國採取區塊鏈技術的漸進式方法驅動的，像迪拜這樣的城市將自己確立為重要的創新樞紐。”

Max Palethorpe, Founder and CEO of Hoko Group, the official organizers of MEBA, commented: “The Middle East Blockchain Awards provides a unique platform to recognize the incredible achievements that are driving the next wave of innovation in blockchain and digital transformation. With the UAE leading the charge in the Web 3.0 revolution, it’s inspiring to see industry leaders coming together to shape the future of this dynamic industry. This year’s event promises to be a true celebration of the pioneers who are pushing boundaries and setting new standards.â€

Meba的官方組織者Hoko Group的創始人兼首席執行官Max Palethorpe評論說：“中東區塊鏈獎獎提供了一個獨特的平台，以表彰令人難以置信的成就，這些成就正在推動區塊鍊和數字化轉型中的下一步創新。隨著阿聯酋在Web 3.0 Revolution中領導的指控，看到行業領導者聚集在一起以塑造這一動態行業的未來，這是令人鼓舞的。今年的活動有望成為對界限並設定新標準的開拓者的真正慶祝活動。”

Returning as a judge for the second consecutive year, Dr. Marwan Al Zarouni, CEO, AI for Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism and CEO of Dubai Blockchain Centre (DBCC) added: “I am thrilled to be part of the judging panel once again and witness the rapid evolution of blockchain technologies in the MENA region. With the UAE at the forefront of this transformation, the government’s forward-thinking approach, combined with the region’s dynamic innovation ecosystem, is accelerating the adoption of Web 3.0 technologies. The Middle East Blockchain Awards captures this momentum and further cements the UAE’s position as a global hub for blockchain excellence.â€

迪拜經濟和旅遊局AI首席執行官Marwan Al Zarouni博士返回，迪拜區塊鏈中心（DBCC）首席執行官Marwan Al Zarouni博士：“我很高興成為評審團的一部分再次見證了北非地區區塊鏈技術的快速發展。隨著阿聯酋處於這種轉變的最前沿，政府的前瞻性方法，加上該地區的動態創新生態系統，正在加速採用Web 3.0技術。中東區塊鏈獎項贏得了這一勢頭，並進一步鞏固了阿聯酋作為卓越區塊鏈的全球樞紐的地位。
