CoinDCX, a crypto exchange in India, acquires BitOasis, the Middle East and North Africa’s leading virtual assets trading platform boasting the highest trading volume in Emirati Dirhams. CoinDCX had previously made a strategic investment in BitOasis in August 2023.
The two market leaders joining forces marks a deal in the MENA region. Combined with the company’s newly acquired licence in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the recent reopening of its platform in Dubai, the acquisition will further empower BitOasis to strengthen and expand its presence across the MENA region as a leading player in the virtual assets ecosystem, licensed and regulated in multiple markets.
Established in 2018, CoinDCX is the most preferred exchange in India, boasting a robust user base of over 15 million. Offering access to over 500+ crypto assets and facilitating average quarterly trading volumes exceeding USD 840 Million in spot in 2024, CoinDCX has been instrumental in driving crypto adoption across India.
Sumit Gupta, Co-Founder of CoinDCX, said, “Building on six years of success and supporting more than 15 million Indians in their crypto journey, CoinDCX aims to become the go-to trading platform for crypto worldwide. For us, investor protection has been paramount, and we have distinguished ourselves in India with unwavering compliance. We are committed to upholding the same standards wherever we operate. This principle will continue to guide our actions as we navigate new markets and opportunities. Our expansion strategy begins with the MENA region, capitalizing on its mature market and the population's keen interest in crypto investment.”
Founded in 2016 by Ola Doudin, Tarek Kaylani and Daniel Robenek, BitOasis has emerged as the go-to platform for retail, institutional and high-net-worth individuals across the GCC and the broader MENA region to buy, sell and hold over 60 tokens with fiat currencies such as AED, SAR, and USD. Since its inception, the company has processed over USD 6 billion in trading volume and raised more than USD 40 million dollars in funding from leading regional and global investors.
