According to the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chainalysis.com\/blog\/middle-east-north-africa-crypto-adoption-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">report<\/a> by Chainalysis, large institutional (more than $10 million), institutional ($1 million to $10 million), and professional ($10,000 to $1 million) sized crypto transfers in the UAE posted annual growth of 20.13%, 55.07 % and 46.3 %, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Despite significant growth, many institutional investors remain concerned about operational security and market volatility.<\/p>\n<p>ADAP\u2019s goal is to eliminate such issues by employing a diversification strategy, with risk management being a priority. As a result of the fund being multi-strategy, it can adapt to the market conditions by mixing directional strategies, income-based strategies, and stable crypto assets acting as a buffer against market uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>The fund aims to provide lower volatility and drawdown compared to long-only cryptocurrency investments, while still targeting returns of over 20% a year and drawdowns of at least 2.4%. Essentially, the ADAP fund links international investing opportunities with private wealth with the help of blockchain technology.<\/p>\n<p>3iQ Corp Chairman and CEO Fred Pye stated that the launch is a milestone for the region\u2019s digital assets industry. \u201cWe are excited to bring our deep experience in digital assets management to the Middle Eastern market with Altnovel.
