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.

在首届版本成功之后，中东区块链奖（MEBA）返回第二年，迪拜被选为东道国。仪式将于4月29日在标志性的朱美拉·伯吉·阿拉伯（Jumeirah Burj al Arab）举行，与Token2049会议相吻合。该活动将团结行业领导者，创新者和有远见的人，以庆祝区块链和加密货币的成就。

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到达了MENA地区区块链采用的快速加速，到达了一个关键时刻。链分析的最新数据将该地区定位为世界上第七大加密货币市场。在2023年7月至2024年6月之间，MENA估计获得了3387亿美元的链上价值，占全球交易量的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，阿联酋已成为数字资产采用的全球领导者。根据Henley＆Partners的最新报告，阿联酋在数字货币使用方面排名第三。连锁分析的数据还显示，在2023年6月至2024年7月之间，阿联酋获得了约340亿美元的加密货币，其同比增长了42％。这是由该国采取区块链技术的渐进式方法驱动的，像迪拜这样的城市将自己确立为重要的创新枢纽。”

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的官方组织者Hoko Group的创始人兼首席执行官Max Palethorpe评论说：“中东区块链奖奖提供了一个独特的平台，以表彰令人难以置信的成就，这些成就正在推动区块链和数字化转型中的下一步创新。随着阿联酋在Web 3.0 Revolution中领导的指控，看到行业领导者聚集在一起以塑造这一动态行业的未来，这是令人鼓舞的。今年的活动有望成为对界限并设定新标准的开拓者的真正庆祝活动。”

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€

迪拜经济和旅游局AI首席执行官Marwan Al Zarouni博士返回，迪拜区块链中心（DBCC）首席执行官Marwan Al Zarouni博士：“我很高兴成为评审团的一部分再次见证了北非地区区块链技术的快速发展。随着阿联酋处于这种转变的最前沿，政府的前瞻性方法，加上该地区的动态创新生态系统，正在加速采用Web 3.0技术。中东区块链奖项赢得了这一势头，并进一步巩固了阿联酋作为卓越区块链的全球枢纽的地位。
