Oman Electricity Transmission Company has awarded power contracts worth $640 million to supply electricity to eight new towns under construction, it said in a statement.
The state-owned power company did not name the businesses that had won the contracts to build and extend grid stations and transmission lines.
The Omani authorities have announced a number of new town projects this year. In October it launched seven community developments designed to provide 12,000 homes.
Under the $1.8 billion project, 9,000 plots of land will be allocated to Omani citizens to build homes using subsidised government loans.
State-owned Oman Housing Bank will offer Omani first-time buyers loans with a 2 percent interest rate, rather than the 6 percent typical of commercial lenders.
In May Oman announced plans to build two low-carbon cities in the mountain region of Jebel Akhdar and in Muscat’s Bawshar Heights. Properties will be available to Omanis, expatriates and investors.

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token
The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
