CoinMENA, a regulated crypto trading platform in the UAE and Bahrain, serving the MENA region, has launched an innovative crypto campaign “Your Future, Your Choice” Partnering with creative agency Bigsea, the campaign uses sharp satire to critique today’s harsh economic realities.
The crypto exchange‘s bold approach addresses two universal challenges: rising living costs and the struggle to grow savings. Through two short films, the campaign humorously highlights modern-day financial struggles with relatable scenarios and a touch of mobster menace.
The films utilize metaphors for painfully familiar scenarios. In the first film, a young man looking to pay his rent is strongarmed by mobsters into emptying his wallet, a situation many can relate to as rent prices rise year after year. In the second film, the same man tries to grow his savings, only to watch helplessly as a mobster clerk and his gang pocket his hard-earned cash, leaving
him with a single coin in “interest.” The scene cleverly reflects how difficult it is for the average person to grow their savings.
Enter Bitcoin, Enter CoinMENA
The campaign flips the script with a call to action: “Don’t get bullied by inflation” and “Don’t get bullied for wanting more.” Instead of settling for the status quo, CoinMENA positions Bitcoin as a reliable alternative, one that protects against inflation and serves as the best
savings vehicle in the digital era.
Founders Dina Sam’an and Talal Tabbaa highlight the bold vision behind the campaign, “We wanted to tell it like it is. Bitcoin is humanity’s first purposefully engineered money, designed to preserve and appreciate in value, unlike fiat money, which is designed to
depreciate and lose value continuously. It represents hope for everyone struggling with the rising cost of living, offering an alternative way to save your time and energy.”
Serge Asaad, CEO of Bigsea, explains the creative inspiration stating, “This campaign is about giving people a moment of realization, that the ‘old way’ is not working out for them. CoinMENA offers not just an alternative, but a real sense of control and optimism
for the future. That’s where the satire comes in: we wanted to make people laugh, then think, and ultimately act.”
CoinMENA’s films deliver a simple yet powerful message: when rising living costs and the struggle to save leave you feeling powerless, choose Bitcoin with CoinMENA and take back control. As the signoff powerfully states: “Your Future, Your Choice.”
