CoinDCX, which previously invested in BitOasis in August, is among the most prominent crypto exchanges in India, boasting a user base of over 15 million and quarterly spot trading volumes of more than $840 million. A report by CoinGecko around a year ago ranked CoinDCX as the country's third-largest crypto exchange, with a 6.6% market share, behind Bitbns and WazirX at 79% and 11%, respectively.

BitOasis has processed total trading volume of $6 billion since its creation in 2016, according to the announcement. That works out at about $188 million a quarter over eight years.

"Our expansion strategy begins with the MENA region, capitalizing on its mature market and the population's keen interest in crypto investment," CoinDCX co-founder Sumit Gupta said.

CoinDCX declined to provide financial terms when contacted by CoinDesk.
