botim money & Binance Weigh UAE Path For Regulated Crypto Access
Talks between botim money and Binance test how crypto could sit inside a fast-growing UAE fintech stack.
botim money, one of the MENA region’s fastest-growing fintech platforms, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with cryptocurrency exchange Binance to examine whether crypto features can be slotted into the UAE-based super-app’s financial tools. The deal, sealed during Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai, marks botim’s latest push beyond messaging toward a fuller payments and investment layer.
The companies are studying how Binance’s digital-asset infrastructure might mesh with botim’s domestic and cross-border rails. The work starts with basic questions: what services can be offered under the UAE’s rulebook, and how to deliver them without creating risk for users already relying on the app for daily transfers.
Catherine Chen, Head of VIP & Institutional at Binance, said: “Crypto is no longer a niche asset class and it is increasingly becoming integrated into everyday financial services. Our collaboration with botim money to make digital assets accessible to botim’s tech-savvy customers exemplifies this shift”.
botim money’s pitch has long centered on users with thin links to the banking system. Crypto access, if approved, would extend that mission to communities seeking simpler ways to move or store value. Sacha Haider, Chief Strategy Officer at Astra Tech/botim, said the potential integration “allows us to build on this foundation and offer customers new ways to engage with the digital economy”.

The UAE has carved out a regulatory lane for digital assets, drawing exchanges and fintechs into controlled experiments. That backdrop gives partnerships like this room to test consumer-facing products while regulators watch the perimeter.
If botim and Binance advance beyond this exploratory phase, the move would strengthen the region’s bid to root digital-asset activity in mainstream finance and add weight to botim’s regional fintech ambitions.

DJI Teases Dual-Camera Osmo Pocket 4P For 2026 Launch
Though most technical claims for the new gimbal come from industry leaks rather than DJI’s own announcement.
DJI has teased a dual-camera version of its Osmo Pocket gimbal, confirming that the Osmo Pocket 4P will launch in 2026. The teaser image is the company’s first preview of the device, following months of speculation about a more advanced model in its pocket camera range.
The image shows a slightly larger device than the existing Osmo Pocket 4, with two camera modules mounted above a compact three-axis gimbal. Reports suggest one camera may use a 1-inch sensor paired with a wide-angle lens, while the second may carry a 3x zoom lens — though DJI has not officially confirmed any of these details.
According to leaks circulating ahead of the launch, the Osmo Pocket 4P could support 4K video at up to 240 frames per second, offer 14 stops of dynamic range and include 10-bit D-Log color support. Those features are commonly used by filmmakers who require greater flexibility during color grading and post-production. Reports also point to Hasselblad color tuning, continuing a partnership that has already appeared in some of DJI’s drone cameras, along with up to 128GB of built-in storage that would reduce reliance on external memory cards during longer shoots.

The device is expected to retain features from the existing Osmo Pocket 4, including a three-axis mechanical gimbal, updated ActiveTrack subject tracking and a flip-out touchscreen display. The Osmo Pocket line is aimed at content creators, vloggers, and independent filmmakers seeking compact equipment that can produce usable footage without a larger camera system.
DJI has not provided pricing or a specific launch date beyond the 2026 window. Industry observers expect the Osmo Pocket 4P to cost more than the standard Pocket 4 because of the dual-camera setup and expanded recording capabilities, though no figures have been disclosed. So far, most of the technical detail circulating around the product remains tied to leaks rather than official confirmation.
