In case you’re wondering how it feels to be headhunted to work with some of the brightest minds in the industry…it’s pretty awesome.

In this article, we’ll cover what the DMCC is, why we decided to move our company to Dubai, and finally, what the move means for our community of loyal hodlers.

What is the DMCC?

The DMCC (Dubai Multi Commodities Centre) has been crowned “Financial Time’s Global Free Zone of the Year” and has been for seven years.

It aims at providing companies the talent, channels, and funding to set up, grow, and thrive as a business. For the past decade, it has provided industry’s with the proper infrastructure to succeed. Now it has set its sights on crypto.

And it has a pretty nice building to boot

DMCC has partnered with CV VC (Crypto-Valley Venture Capital) and CV Labs to launch the crypto center we now call home.

While most of the free world is spending time trying to figure out how to legislate crypto, Dubai has become a perfect haven for companies like us who are trying to do big things in the space. I suppose that leads us into…

Why move to the DMCC?

Correct licensing is awesome

The move to Dubai removed some heavy chains for Quantum Works. As our snowball of a video game barrels toward the future, it was weighed down by all of the red tape the UK has for crypto.

In a space where business developments happen at lightning speeds, wading through the legal gray areas is detrimental.

Dubai is ahead of the global curve when it comes to crypto taxes and legislation. It’s for this reason that the best minds in the industry are flocking to the same building we now work in.

Networking is awesome

It’s hard to overstate how fortunate we are to be working shoulder to shoulder with brilliant people whose passion for crypto is the same as ours.

There are over 20,000 companies in this blockchain network that we now have access to. Companies like Binance see the same opportunity here as us.

The quality of ideas, experience, and expertise are all through the roof, and now we have easy access to meet with the best in the crypto world.

What does it mean for our community?

In short, it just means we are another step in the right direction. While our game development team has been busy with the game, our executive team has been busy making sure our company succeeds at a high level.

Now we can support the developments on our game even faster, as we’re avoiding the legal quicksand. We can facilitate even stronger partnerships and have access to crypto-specific talent and resources.

If the community hasn’t seen any huge changes as a result, that means our transition has gone well! But we promise this is a huge upgrade on the backend.

Thank you, as always, for being a part of this crypto revolution. We’re excited to share more big updates with you.
