迪拜监管机构已暂停加密货币交易所BitOasis的牌照:金色财经报道，迪拜加密货币监管机构已暂停加密货币交易所BitOasis的牌照，原因是该交易所未在监管机构规定的时间内满足规定条件。
虚拟资产监管局(VARA)发布了警告，称其对BitOasis采取了执法行动，并正在审查这家公司。VARA表示，BitOasis于4月12日获得的有条件许可证允许其运营，前提是该公司满足30-60天时间范围内的关键条件，监管机构称这些条件尚未得到满足。VARA没有详细说明BitOasis未能满足哪些条件，但监管机构表示，在满足条件之前，该公司的机构和合格散户投资者许可证仍处于不可操作状态。[2023/7/11 10:47:29]
