Moving again, this time to the Middle East? That compliance stuff is really useless for retail investors.

Playing the compliance game again? The Middle Eastern market is really competitive.

Another exchange has moved to the Middle East. Newcomers, don't be fooled by the words "compliance." I was tricked by this rhetoric into a all-in back in 2018...

It's ADGM again... Is the compliance trend in the Middle East so strong? Why are all the exchanges rushing there?

The UAE is also tightening compliance again, it really feels more and more like a professional military force.

Alright, here we go again, another exchange fleeing to the Middle East... This time is Abu Dhabi? Feels more like a compliance escape route.

Damn, are they changing the rules again? Can compliance really make the coin price go up?
