The UAE’s Web 3.0 story is moving fast, and du just gave it another push forward. The telecom giant has officially launched Cloud Miner, a Cloud Mining as a Service (MaaS) platform designed to make cryptocurrency participation simple, secure, and accessible to UAE residents.
Unveiled through a laser show at the Burj Khalifa, Cloud Miner represents du’s first major blockchain product under its ‘du Tech’ sub-brand. It builds on the company’s extensive data center capabilities and ICT infrastructure to drive sustainable crypto innovation while maintaining full compliance with UAE regulations.
A New Way to Access Crypto
Through du Tech’s data centers across the UAE, residents can now engage in crypto mining by renting computational power on a subscription basis. Instead of setting up costly rigs or managing hardware, users can bid online for mining power through Online Auction between 3rd and 9th November, and start operations immediately after subscribing.
This model gives users access to Bitcoin mining rewards and blockchain participation without worrying about equipment, electricity, or maintenance. It’s a simplified, transparent path into crypto; one that fits perfectly within Dubai’s growing digital ecosystem.
Designed for Transparency and Trust
du’s Cloud Miner sets a new standard in trust and user protection. Subscribers enjoy 250 TH/s mining capacity with clear, no-hidden-fee contracts that run for 24 months.
Security is strengthened through KYC/AML compliance, UAE Pass verification, and Two-Factor Authentication for account safety. According to Jasim AlAwadi, Chief ICT Officer at du, the launch of Cloud Miner “offers an easy entry point into cryptocurrency while leveraging du’s reliability, transparency, and security. It reflects our commitment to innovation and a sustainable future for digital finance in the UAE.”
The Bigger Picture: Web 3.0 Becomes Operational
The UAE already has one of the most progressive crypto frameworks in the world. With VARA providing clear rules and the Dubai Digital Economy Strategy setting the direction, the country’s Web 3.0 ambitions are well underway.
du’s move reinforces a key point. Dubai isn’t waiting for global signals; it’s setting them.
Each corporate initiative, from fintech to telecom, strengthens the foundation for a full-fledged decentralized economy.
For investors, builders, and policymakers, Cloud Miner is more than a service launch.
It’s proof that Web 3.0 in the UAE is no longer theoretical — it’s operational.
That’s the conversation heading to Unchained Summit on 1st & 2nd May 2026 in Dubai. The event will bring together founders, investors, and policy leaders to discuss how Web 3.0 services can scale within national ecosystems, and how public trust is built when companies like du take the lead.
