São Paulo – Three years and a half ago, two Portuguese started developing the project of a new cryptocurrency. The initiative resulted in the BestKoin, company based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. But wait, if the founders are Portuguese, why choose the Arab country? “Several factors led us to choose Dubai to be our headquarters. I can highlight the most important ones: the emirate has a very advanced legislation in the cryptocurrency sector; Dubai is also a tourist destination for its own, and that fits [our] main goal. Dubai is extremely well-structured, objective, and cannot stand failure, which we appreciate because of our economic and financial assertiveness,” said BestKoin cofounder Pedro Ribeiro to ANBA.
