The digital finance landscape in the UAE has taken a monumental step forward. Telecom giant du has launched Cloud Miner, the nation’s first official Cloud Mining as a Service (MaaS) offering. This revolutionary platform allows UAE residents to effortlessly participate in Bitcoin mining within a fully regulated and transparent local framework.
What is Cloud Mining as a Service (MaaS)?
Traditional Bitcoin mining requires significant investment in expensive hardware (ASIC rigs), high electricity consumption, technical expertise, and constant maintenance. MaaS, or Mining as a Service, removes all those barriers.
du’s Cloud Miner package includes:
Capacity: 250TH/s
Type: Bitcoin
Details:
- No hardware rental fee
- No electricity bills
- Operations included
- Maintenance for full duration
You simply subscribe to a contract (typically for 24 months), pay a transparent fixed fee, and the mined Bitcoin is deposited directly into your crypto wallet.
Key Benefits: Easy, Secure, and Regulated
The launch of Cloud Miner is significant because it addresses the three main challenges of crypto mining:
- Zero Hardware Hassle: Forget buying, setting up, cooling, or maintaining complicated rigs. du handles the entire technical operation.
- Locally Regulated and Compliant: Operating under local data protection and financial oversight, the platform provides a legitimate, UAE-hosted alternative to international services. Access requires strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) verification via UAE Pass, with mandatory Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for added security.
- Accessible to UAE Residents: Any UAE resident with a verified ID and an investment portfolio can participate, making crypto mining an easy-to-digest investment product.
To qualify for mining activities, obtaining a UAE Resident ID is a mandatory requirement. The most efficient way to meet this eligibility is by establishing your business in the UAE, which includes the issuance of your residency visa.
Sarsan Corporate Services streamlines the entire business formation process, ensuring fast, compliant, and hassle-free setup in Dubai and across the UAE. Upon submission of the required documentation, your business license and residency visa can be processed and issued within 72 hours, allowing you to begin operations without delay.
How to Start Mining Today
The initial phase of securing a Cloud Miner contract was facilitated through a dedicated online auction. To get started, residents must first:
- Secure a contract (via auction or standard subscription, depending on the current offering).
- Complete mandatory account verification using their UAE Pass.
- Pay the transparent, fixed fees.
The auction window starts from November 3 until November 9, 2025. You can bid via: onlineauction.ae.
Once verified, your mining operation begins immediately, and you start receiving BTC rewards based on your rented computational power. This move solidifies the UAE’s position as a hub for innovative, regulated digital asset infrastructure.
