3iQ Bitcoin ETF to launch in Dubai
Bitcoin ETFs are already gaining popularity in North America. Canada has listed a few Bitcoin ETFs in recent months while the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is reviewing nine proposals. South America also has one after Brazil approved a Bitcoin ETF a few weeks ago.The next region that could see a Bitcoin ETF is the Middle East. The CEO of Canada’s largest digital-asset investment fund manager 3iQ Corp said the firm wants to raise $200 million by listing its Bitcoin ETF in Dubai.
Fred Pye told Bloomberg the firm intends to list the ETF on the Nasdaq Dubai exchange. This way, 3iQ’s Bitcoin ETF will be trading at all hours around the globe. “We trade on the North American market times, and Dubai is almost perfectly opposite of what our trading hours are,” he added.
If the plan goes through, it would be the first Bitcoin exchange-traded fund in the Middle East. 3iQ has been around since 2012 and currently has roughly $1.5 billion in assets under management. The firm listed its 3iQ Coinshares Bitcoin ETF on the Toronto Stock Exchange a few months ago. 3iQ will use Dubai-based Dalma Capital Management Ltd. as the syndicate manager for the offering.
The CEO explained that their plan goes beyond launching a Bitcoin ETF. He said 3iQ wants to work closely with lenders in the Middle East. “Not only the banks in the UAE but also potential banks from other countries in the region,” he added.
The US is still waiting for its first Bitcoin ETF
Canada approved three Bitcoin ETFs recently while Brazil launched the first of its kind in South America. However, crypto enthusiasts in the US are still waiting for the first Bitcoin ETF in the country. The US Securities and Exchange Commission is currently reviewing nine Bitcoin ETF applications. Experts are optimistic the agency will approve at least one of them.Pye hopes the price of the leading cryptocurrencies continues its extended rally and reaches $100,000 in three years. “Right now, we’ve seen Bitcoin consolidate in the $50,000-$60,000 range, we expect that to continue,” he concluded.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
