Ripple 和 DIFC 聯手加速阿聯酋區塊鏈創新

Ripple 公佈了與杜拜國際金融中心（DIFC）創新中心合作的計劃，以促進區塊鏈和加密貨幣在阿聯酋的採用。

Blockchain technology company Ripple has announced a partnership with the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) Innovation Hub to promote blockchain and crypto adoption in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

區塊鏈技術公司 Ripple 宣布與杜拜國際金融中心 (DIFC) 創新中心建立合作夥伴關係，以促進阿拉伯聯合大公國 (UAE) 的區塊鏈和加密貨幣採用。

The collaboration will see Ripple dedicate 1 billion XRP to providing financial, technical, and business support to developers on the XRP Ledger (XRPL).

在此次合作中，Ripple 將投入 10 億 XRP 為 XRP Ledger (XRPL) 的開發者提供財務、技術和業務支援。

According to the announcement, the partnership aims to “accelerate blockchain and digital assets innovation in the UAE.”

根據公告，該合作夥伴關係旨在「加速阿聯酋的區塊鏈和數位資產創新」。

The collaboration will connect early-stage developers with the DIFC Innovation Hub, which is home to over 1,000 growth-stage tech firms, innovation companies, digital labs, venture capital firms, regulators, and educational entities.

此次合作將把早期開發者與 DIFC 創新中心聯繫起來，該中心是 1,000 多家成長階段科技公司、創新公司、數位實驗室、創投公司、監管機構和教育實體的所在地。

The partnership will also see Ripple work with DIFC to introduce and position blockchain technology with traditional large strategic institutions and their use cases.

The collaboration comes amid growing interest in blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies in the UAE.

此次合作是在阿聯酋對區塊鏈技術和加密貨幣日益濃厚的興趣之際進行的。

Earlier this year, the Dubai government announced plans to establish a new regulatory authority for cryptocurrencies and other virtual assets in the emirate.

今年早些時候，杜拜政府宣布計劃在酋長國建立一個新的加密貨幣和其他虛擬資產監管機構。

The authority, which will be called the Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (DVARA), will be responsible for licensing and regulating crypto exchanges, initial coin offerings (ICOs), and other related activities in Dubai.

該機構將被稱為杜拜虛擬資產監管局（DVARA），將負責杜拜加密貨幣交易所、首次代幣發行（ICO）和其他相關活動的授權和監管。

The move is part of the government’s efforts to attract and support blockchain and crypto businesses in the emirate and to position Dubai as a leading hub for the digital economy in the region.

此舉是政府吸引和支持酋長國區塊鏈和加密貨幣業務並將杜拜定位為該地區數位經濟領先中心的努力的一部分。
