Join the cohort of players defining the future of gaming on SACHI, where you have real influence on features, drops, and gameplay with your votes

The post Join the cohort of players defining the future of gaming on SACHI, where you have real influence on features, drops, and gameplay with your votes appeared com. [Dubai, UAE] While many Web3 projects have the framework to democratize and decentralize governance, there is still a huge chasm between voting on issues and actually influencing real, effective change. In most cases, the process just feels abstract, slow, and symbolic. SACHI is rewriting the script with Governance That Matters, ending the cycle of irrelevant proposals and performative polls leading up to decisions that rarely improve the player experience. SACHI’s answer is a platform where player votes directly moderate upcoming features, drops, and modes in real time. Governance becomes real agency when players trust that the results from today’s votes can go live in next week’s update as long as there is community consensus. SACHI is the case study for Web3 projects looking to keep their communities engaged and empowered with its transparency in delivering immediate implementations of governance resolutions. SACHI’s governance model democratizes decision-making Due to its relatively novel nature, the natural reaction to Web3 governance is curiosity. Many players have asked the “Will my voice matter here?” question when they enter new ecosystems, and unfortunately, the answer usually underwhelms when compared to the initial proposition. SACHI answers the governance question with an emphatic yes, and follows through with direct, responsive execution of poll results in real gaming environments. Player choices flow straight into the development pipeline, whether it is in deciding avatar skins to be added to the game, voting on tournament formats, or deciding the theme of the next season’s pass. Your Votes Steer SACHI’s Direction SACHI’s governance system renders abstract DAO structures with convoluted delegation structures obsolete, with its open design that allows players at all levels to vote on outcomes that transparently and directly affect real change.

UAE’s Ultra-Rich Are Driving a Fierce Crypto Revolution in Private Banking

The post UAE’s Ultra-Rich Are Driving a Fierce Crypto Revolution com. The traditional wealth management and private banking world, much of which is hard-bitten and twice shy when it comes to cryptocurrency investing, is under mounting pressure again to deliver digital assets to wealthy clients, particularly in crypto hotspots like Dubai, Switzerland and Singapore. Swiss software firm Avaloq, which serves many private banks and wealth managers, examined high net worth (HNW) investing attitudes in the UAE (based on surveys of 3, 851 investors and 456 wealth professionals conducted in February/March 2025), and found that while demand for digital assets in that region is unusually high (39% of wealthy clients hold crypto), only 20% of those crypto investors used a traditional wealth manager. The UAE, known for its oil-rich, ultra-high net-worth family offices and a low tax center for expat workers, is also quickly becoming one of the world’s hottest crypto hubs, with Dubai offering a clear regulatory framework in the form of the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), which has been in place since 2022. These days, the kids of ultra-high net-worth families are educating their elders about crypto for example, the Trumps. Against this backdrop, Avaloq’s UAE snapshot found that 63% of investors have switched managers or are considering doing so. The reason is partly because their questions about crypto are going unanswered, according to the survey. “As crypto has evolved as an asset class, there has been a growing need among private banking relationship managers to cater to clients who are basically not being served,” said Akash Anand, head of Middle East and Africa at Avaloq, in an interview with CoinDesk. “Hence there has been a rush among traditional wealth managers to get equipped to offer crypto.” The roadblocks So why weren’t these traditional financial institutions serving what their clients want? The simple answer is that crypto, by its.
