Could you please provide some clarity on the question of whether Saudi Arabia accepts cryptocurrencies? I'm interested in understanding the country's stance towards digital currencies and if there are any regulations or policies in place that govern their usage. Also, I would like to know if any major institutions or businesses in Saudi Arabia have adopted cryptocurrencies as a means of payment or investment. Additionally, are there any specific cryptocurrencies that are more widely accepted or preferred in Saudi Arabia? Thank you for your assistance in clarifying this matter.
