Hashed Expands to Abu Dhabi: A New Crypto Hub

The firm partnered with Abu Dhabi’s global tech ecosystem, Hub71, and expressed interest in bringing more Korean startups to the United Arab Emirates, especially those in the fintech and digital-asset sectors. Founded in 2017, Hashed Ventures manages some $700 million in assets, with a global presence in San Francisco and Singapore.

Its chief executive officer and managing partner, Simon Seo-Joon Kim, said Hashed emphasizes the need for overseas expansion by Korean startups, given the country’s shrinking population and intensely competitive home market.

Kim said the UAE was a special market because of its ‘friendly’ regulator and clear guidance for web3 startups. He added that many enterprises had opened offices in Abu Dhabi.
