Animoca Brands has cleared the last step it needed to run a fund management business in Abu Dhabi, Cointelegraph reported on Nov 2, 2026. The available text does not say what that step was or which body signed off on it.
Animoca began as a mobile games company. It is now building a fund management arm in Abu Dhabi, aimed at institutions that want exposure to stablecoins and tokenized assets.
Several details are not in the report as given: the size of any fund, when it will start operating, which specific products it will offer and which assets it will hold. Until those are published, the story is about a business expansion, not about money moving yet.
For anyone already holding a perpetual position on Bitget, Bybit, MEXC or OKX, this changes nothing directly. The story does not mention perpetual futures, funding rates, trading fees or any of these four exchanges, and nothing in it points to a change in liquidity on them.
