Death of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyane, President of the United Arab Emirates
Yesterday, following this positive announcement, another more sad one took place. The government of the United Arab Emirates announced yesterday, the death of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyane. The country has declared a national mourning of 40 days.
President of the United Arab Emirates, he was also the son of its founder. Since its creation in 1971, the country has experienced a meteoric rise on the international scene thanks to its oil reserves. Nevertheless, aware that it should not remain dependent on them, the country has quickly diversified its investments.
We must not rely solely on oil as our main source of national income. We must diversify the sources of our income and build economic projects that will ensure a free, stable and dignified life for our people.

This rise was to peak with an attractive legal environment for cryptocurrencies and a simple legal framework to make it easy for entrepreneurs from around the world to come live and work in the UAE (ed. note: which Coinpri did).
We are proud of all UAE residents and their vital contributions to the development and building of the nation.
The Sheikh’s mission has come to an end and there is no doubt that the UAE will become in accordance with the plan of its President, the cryptocurrency capital of the world by 2025/2030.
CEO and Editor-in-Chief of Coinpri I have been navigating the waters of Blockchain for 5 years already.
Wait, I can see the Promised Land of Adoption in the distance.
