In recent years, the US and China have dominated the AI scene, but there is a new player starting to change the game: the Arabian Gulf.
Today, Saudi Arabia and the UAE are leading a wave of massive investments in AI infrastructure, which could change the balance of economic and technological power globally.
🔹 Investments in billions of dollars
Abu Dhabi announced the construction of data centers with a capacity of 5,000 megawatts, and Riyadh plans to inject more than $40 billion into AI projects by 2027.
The Gulf companies 'G42' and 'Aramco Digital' have entered direct partnerships with companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and NVIDIA.
🔹 Direct impact on crypto
This comes with the growing interest of the region in Web3 projects, such as:
Run decentralized AI models (on blockchains like Bittensor and FET)
Invest in AI tokens like RNDR, AKT, and AGIX
Building infrastructure for machine learning blockchains in Arabic
🔹 What does this mean for investors?
The opportunity lies in the integration of AI and Web3:
AI projects on the blockchain will receive significant support in the Gulf
Tokens supporting AI are candidates for significant increases
There are possibilities for the Gulf countries to become global Web3 data centers
✍️ Summary
If you're looking for long-term investment in projects with strong foundations, watch out for any project linking AI and blockchain with Gulf partnerships.
This may just be the beginning, and the opportunity is still open for those thinking beyond just daily trading.
