This is not the right thing to be done from a country that prosper with the oil economy. When there is no competence the growth won't be that big. Dubai says strong, because it believes in the potential of the technology and they have begun its use on the logistics industry. Countries that have been restricting the use of bitcoin will understand the need and will allow its use.
Right, Dubai seems to look at crypto in a different way. Saudi Arabia is still on the traditional, just like India so I would make sense for their government to stay this way so don't be surprised about their hard line stance against bitcoin and the rest of crypto.
While Dubai was very open and as compare to other Muslim countries in the Middle East. The country is already rich as f**k, but it doesn't mean they should stop their forward thinking.
