OPEC Pledges Enduring Role as Anchor in Global Oil Landscape

Haitham Al Ghais, Secretary General of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, has affirmed that OPEC will remain a pillar of market stability and a critical voice for oil’s role in the world for decades. Delivered to coincide with OPEC’s 65th anniversary, his remarks emphasised the organisation’s long‐standing mission and future direction.

OPEC projects oil demand to reach around 123 million barrels per day by 2050, driven by economic expansion and growing populations. Al Ghais warned that predictions of a near-term decline in relevance or “peak oil” should be viewed with scepticism in light of long‐term demand forecasts and OPEC’s historical resilience.

He noted that oil remains indispensable across many spheres of daily life: transportation, construction, food production and healthcare. Oils and petroleum derivatives, he said, are foundational not just for consumers but for societal and economic prosperity more broadly. Without them, critical infrastructure and supply chains could be severely disrupted.

Al Ghais described OPEC’s foundation in 1960 as a unifying vision for oil-producing nations, asserting sovereign control over production, supporting regular supply to consuming nations, and ensuring a fair return for investors. He reflected on the group’s evolution, including its expansion and the formation of the OPEC+ framework in 2016, which he said strengthened its ability to respond to global shocks such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 65-year mark, he argued, is not simply an anniversary but a reaffirmation of core objectives: balancing producer and consumer interests; dialogue and cooperation with non-OPEC producers; and emphasizing a holistic, multi-technology approach to energy security and poverty alleviation in developing regions.

He also stressed that energy security is “inconceivable without oil,” especially for societies coping with energy poverty. For OPEC, the challenge ahead involves ensuring that growth in demand is met “in a sustainable way” that incorporates environmental, social and economic considerations, while keeping market stabilisation efforts front and centre.

Memecoin Surge Signals Altcoin Season as Fed Cut Odds Rise

Memecoins have surged across cryptocurrency markets as traders shift bets toward a probable interest-rate cut by the Federal Reserve and the possibility of U. S. altcoin ETF approvals. Bitcoin’s market share has declined by about 3.5% over the past month, while indexes comparing altcoin performance versus Bitcoin have entered so-called “altseason” territory.

Expectations that the Federal Reserve may reduce rates by 25 basis points later this month are currently priced in at over 90% by market observers using tools such as Polymarket and the CME’s FedWatch. A rate cut is widely seen as a trigger boosting risk-assets by lowering the comparative appeal of fixed-income securities.

The CoinDesk Memecoin Index rose roughly 7.1% over 24 hours, led by tokens like SHIB and BONE. These gains came despite Shiba Inu’s layer-2 network, Shibarium, being hit by a flash-loan exploit, which did not dampen investor enthusiasm.

Analysts point out that falling Bitcoin dominance, which reflects a shrinking slice of total crypto market capitalisation for the biggest token, often heralds a shift into altcoins. Indexes from providers including CoinMarketCap and CoinGlass have signalled this rotation of capital away from Bitcoin toward altcoins.

Institutional momentum is also tightening around altcoin exchange-traded funds; proposals for ETFs covering DOGE and TRUMP tokens are reportedly under consideration for U. S. markets in the final quarter of the year. Approval of such funds could draw both retail and institutional capital into memecoin-adjacent assets.

Gemini IPO Soars on Nasdaq Debut, Gains 32%+

Gemini Space Station, the cryptocurrency exchange founded by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, saw its shares leap more than 32% when it began trading on Nasdaq under the ticker “GEMI”. The stock opened at $37.01, having been priced at $28, after the company raised $425 million through an initial public offering.

Gemini sold 15.2 million shares at the set price, above the originally floated range of $24 to $26 per share. Investor demand exceeded supply by over twenty times. Nasdaq also participated with a $50 million private placement simultaneous with the IPO.

The valuation placed Gemini at approximately $3.3 billion, non-diluted. After the rally, the share price settled closer to $32, still well above the IPO price but reflecting a pull-back from the intraday highs.

Gemini posted a net loss of $282.5 million for the first half of 2025, following a $159 million loss in 2024. Despite those losses, its business spans crypto exchange services, a stablecoin, and a rewards credit card product.

Regulatory developments have bolstered confidence in the cryptocurrency sector. Gemini has benefited from relaxed oversight compared with earlier years, and the IPO is seen as a signal of institutional adoption amid stronger clarity from U. S. regulators. The firm is now viewed alongside the likes of Coinbase and Bullish, both of which have gone public.

Object 1 Unveils Abu Dhabi Growth Plan at IREIS 2025

Abu Dhabi-based developer Object 1 is accelerating its expansion into the capital, using the platform of the International Real Estate & Investment Show at ADNEC to roll out its latest developments and strategic vision. Head of Business Development, Ismail Gasanov, will speak on panels addressing investment prospects for foreign nationals, sustainability, and intentional design.

The company is opening its first sales gallery in Abu Dhabi to serve investors, brokers, and homebuyers. Sales figures for Abu Dhabi’s wider real-estate sector demonstrate strong performance: Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre reported Dh25.3 billion worth of transactions in the first quarter of 2025, a year-over-year increase of 34.5 %, with demand shifting toward lifestyle, waterfront, and premium residences.

Object 1’s growth in Abu Dhabi builds on its rapid ascendance in Dubai. With over 17 active projects, the developer has become a top-ten player in Dubai’s development landscape within just a few years. The company claims sales value jumped 188 % in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, while transaction volume rose 157 %. Its development pipeline now exceeds 4.5 million square feet, including ALTA V1EW, its newest tower slated to rank among the tallest in Jumeirah Village Circle.

At IREIS 2025, with more than 35 exhibitors and over 2,000 investors expected, Object 1 joins Gold Sponsors such as Reportage Properties, Danube Properties, and Dugasta Properties. The show features an Investment Conference that will examine foreign investment, property law reforms, new ownership models, and how proptech, smart cities, and sustainability are reshaping the market.

Tatiana Tonu, CEO of Object 1, said that Abu Dhabi’s stable economy, high-quality infrastructure, and affluent communities continue to draw discerning investors seeking both capital growth and lifestyle excellence. The expansion into the capital reflects the firm’s long-term confidence in Abu Dhabi as a hub for design-led, sustainable developments that combine community living and investment value.

Abu Dhabi’s active development pipeline is considerable. A report by BNC Network puts the total value of active projects at about US$758.79 billion, with the urban construction component contributing some US$221.56 billion. Residential supply is increasing, with around 2,400 units already delivered in Abu Dhabi city this year; by year end, about 10,400 units are projected, and 11,000 more scheduled for delivery in 2026.
