沙特阿拉伯推出了新的Web3聯盟，以促進數字化工作

沙特阿拉伯已經建立了一個新的Web3聯盟，旨在提高海灣國家的數字化步伐，從而從全球和地方生態系統參與者中吸引參與者，並獲得政府支持的條紋。

Saudi Arabia has launched a new Web3 alliance to support the government’s efforts in boosting adoption levels for blockchain technology and Web3 solutions.

沙特阿拉伯已經建立了一個新的Web3聯盟，以支持政府在提高區塊鏈技術和Web3解決方案的採用水平方面的努力。

The new association will also bring together global and local ecosystem members for a faster pace of digitization in the Gulf nation.

新協會還將匯集全球和地方生態系統成員，以在海灣國家的數字化速度更快。

According to a press release statement, the new alliance is named the Web3 Alliance of Saudi Arabia (WASA), and it will be focused on supporting the use cases of the technology for both enterprises and individual utilities.

根據新聞稿聲明，新聯盟被命名為沙特阿拉伯（WASA）的Web3聯盟，它將重點介紹為企業和單個公用事業的技術用例支持。

Founding members of the alliance include industry heavyweights such as The Sandbox, Outlier Ventures, Animoca Brands, and a group of local blockchain service providers in the country, as well as academics and blockchain experts including Stephan Apel, Wajd Badawi, and Yasser Alobaida.

該聯盟的創始成員包括行業重量級人物，例如沙盒，離群風險投資，Animoca品牌以及該國的一組本地區塊鏈服務提供商，以及包括Stephan Apel，Wajd Badawi和Yasser Alobaida在內的學術界和區塊鏈專家。

Four cardinal principles guide WASA in the push to trigger ecosystem growth. For starters, WASA’s primary objective is hosting learning workshops and seminars to educate the general public on Web3 use cases and benefits in enterprise applications.

四個基本原則指南WASA促使生態系統增長。首先，WASA的主要目標是舉辦學習研討會和研討會，以對企業應用程序中的Web3用例和收益進行教育。

The alliance will also roll out best practices for the industry to ensure uniformity among industry players. WASA is expected to provide stakeholders and new entrants with a platform for networking and collaboration by hosting conferences in Saudi Arabia.

該聯盟還將為行業推出最佳實踐，以確保行業參與者之間的統一性。預計WASA將通過在沙特阿拉伯舉辦會議來為利益相關者和新參與者提供網絡和協作的平台。

Finally, WASA will be supporting research and innovation in Saudi Arabia, providing avenues for pilot projects and funding promising studies.

最後，WASA將支持沙特阿拉伯的研究和創新，為試點項目和資助有希望的研究提供途徑。

The alliance will adopt a decentralized governance model made up of an executive committee and a general assembly with extensive voting powers. Keeping to its mantra of Web3 adoption, WASA will use blockchain for its voting decision-making processes while remaining independent from government influence.

該聯盟將採用由執行委員會和具有廣泛投票權的大會組成的分散治理模式。 WASA繼續採用Web3的咒語，將使用區塊鏈進行投票決策過程，同時保持獨立於政府的影響力。

The official statement confirms that WASA intends to operate as a non-profit and will not earn funds from endorsing blockchain projects. Instead, it will focus its attention on blockchain adoption initiatives, “creating a neutral ground” for ecosystem growth in the country.

官方聲明確認WASA打算作為非營利組織運作，並且不會從認可區塊鏈項目中賺取資金。取而代之的是，它將注意力集中在區塊鏈採用計劃上，“為該國的生態系統增長創造中立的立場。

Emerging technologies in Saudi Arabia

沙特阿拉伯的新興技術

In recent years, Saudi Arabia has made its stance on emerging technologies clear for its digitization objectives. While the government remains skeptical about blockchain use in finance, it has made a play in exploring central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) to reduce cash usage and explore cross-border transaction settlement.

近年來，沙特阿拉伯對新興技術的數字化目標明確作出了立場。儘管政府對金融中的區塊鏈使用仍然持懷疑態度，但它在探索中央銀行數字貨幣（CBDC）方面發揮了作用，以減少現金使用情況並探索跨境交易解決方案。

An improvement in the ease of doing business has seen industry heavyweights set up shop in the country, driving up interest. On the flip side, the government is pitching its tent with artificial intelligence (AI) to drive digitization as it seeks to keep pace with the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

業務易於開展業務的提高使行業重量級商店在該國建立了商店，引起了人們的興趣。另一方面，政府正在用人工智能（AI）向其帳篷推銷，以推動數字化，因為它試圖與阿拉伯聯合酋長國（UAE）保持同步。
