ADGM Issues Alert Concerning Misleading Claims by Vibrafund FZLLC

The Registration Authority and FSRA jointly issued a public alert stating that Vibrafund FZLLC is not incorporated, registered or licensed in ADGM and has falsely claimed ADGM registration/licensing status for digital-asset trading activity. This sets a policy-relevant precedent on enforcement against misrepresentation of ADGM status and underscores the importance of verifying counterparties via the ADGM Public Register.
