Adel’s extensive experience in the cryptoassets world was derived from working for the UK regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Adel acted as the ‘Crypto-asset policeman’ who granted and refused cryptoasset licenses to UK applicants that sought UK registration in order to provide cryptoasset services such as setting up a crypto exchange and/or providing crypto asset custodial services.
Adel’s career took a turn after realizing that working for the government/regulator was tremendously slow at innovating itself, alongside the fact that the FCA’s conservative approach created complex crypto asset application criteria and reporting requirements that stifled innovation.
Adel now manages his own marketing consultancy in Dubai working with start-ups with the aim to educate people about the next evolution of the internet. Adel is also the host of the Traders Brawl podcast, an in-house talk-show that focusses on bridging the gap between fitness and financial freedom, and so-called, ‘GymPreneurs’. Adel’s hobbies include videography, health & fitness weight-training and exploring new countries.
