Blockchain in Egypt and the Middle East | Pend Hub

Blockchain grew fast over the past decade. Bitcoin started its adoption. Smart contracts and virtual machines expanded use. Today, blockchain supports identity, payments, tokenization, and supply chains.
Goal Pend Hub builds practical blockchain solutions for Egypt and the Middle East. We focus on compliance, clear user flows, and fast deployment.
Why Egypt and the Middle East?
Egypt has a strong demand for trusted transactions, transparent logistics, and digital identity. Businesses in banking, agriculture, food, logistics, real estate, and NGOs seek traceability and auditability. The Middle East is scaling fintech and digital infrastructure. We align with this demand.
Focus
-
Egypt as the primary market
-
GCC and wider MENA expansion
-
Sector pilots that convert into repeatable products
Blockchain Regulatory context
We aim to align with Egypt’s regulatory direction on digital identity, e‑signatures, and financial technology for non‑banking activities. Our approach is documentation‑first. All flows are auditable. Identity is progressive. Contracts and consents are logged and queryable.

FAQ
Is blockchain required for every workflow? No. We use blockchain only when it adds verifiable trust, shared state, or programmable payouts.
How do users start without crypto experience? They create a smart wallet with a phone. No seed phrase. Clear PIN and OTP flows. They can use partner on‑ramps where allowed.
What assets can be tokenized Assets with clear ownership, cash flow, and lawful structure. Examples include crops, inventory, property shares, equipment, and receivables.
How are redemptions handled Through pool logic. NAV or cycle‑based. Buffers can smooth liquidity.
How do audits work Explorers and APIs expose transactions, states, and documents needed for reviews. Contracts and consents are traceable.
