BBK Partners with Binance at Gateway Gulf Forum
In a significant move for the crypto industry in the Middle East, the Bank of Bahrain & Kuwait (BBK) has officially joined the Binance Link Program, marking another key partnership between traditional banking and digital assets. The announcement was made during the Gateway Gulf Investment Forum 2025, a major event focused on regional financial innovation and investment.
This collaboration signals a growing openness among Gulf-region banks to explore blockchain-based services and embrace cryptocurrency infrastructure. BBK’s participation in the Binance Link Program positions it to integrate crypto-friendly solutions for its customers and potentially develop digital asset offerings in the future.
What is the Binance Link Program?
The Binance Link Program connects traditional financial institutions with Binance’s global exchange infrastructure, allowing them to offer crypto-related services under their own branding. This can include crypto trading, custody, fiat gateways, and other blockchain-based tools.
By joining the program, BBK gains access to Binance’s technology stack while maintaining regulatory oversight through Bahrain’s progressive crypto framework. Bahrain has long been recognized as one of the most crypto-friendly nations in the Gulf, with the Central Bank of Bahrain already regulating several crypto platforms, including Binance itself.
Boost for Crypto Adoption in the Gulf
This partnership between BBK and Binance is seen as a strong signal that Gulf-region institutions are moving beyond exploration and into active crypto integration. As demand for digital assets grows in the region, especially among younger and tech-savvy investors, banks like BBK are looking to stay competitive by embracing crypto innovations.
With BBK now linked directly to Binance’s infrastructure, customers in Bahrain and beyond could soon see smoother on- and off-ramps between fiat and crypto, making digital asset usage more accessible than ever.
