Two blockchain veterans are gearing up to launch what could be the first cryptocurrency exchange in the Persian Gulf to be licensed by a central bank. Rain Financial has opened its public waiting list, after a year in the Central Bank of Bahrain’s fintech sandbox. Rain aims to offer both a brokerage for retail crypto investors and an institutional platform along the lines of Coinbase Pro in Silicon Valley.
Maveterani wawili wa blockchain wanajiandaa kuzindua kile ambacho kinaweza kuwa ubadilishaji wa kwanza wa sarafu-fiche katika Ghuba ya Uajemi kupata leseni na benki kuu. Rain Financial imefungua orodha yake ya kusubiri kwa umma, baada ya mwaka mmoja katika sanduku la mchanga la Benki Kuu ya Bahrain. Mvua inalenga kutoa udalali kwa wawekezaji wa reja reja wa crypto na jukwaa la kitaasisi kando ya Coinbase Pro katika Silicon Valley.
