At Day 1 of #FIIPRIORITY Miami Summit, Patel Family Office and Abdel Hadi A. Al-Qahtani & Sons signed a $1B agreement to launch AYARA, a 50-hotel platform focused on standardized, mid-market business travel across Saudi Arabia.

For an industry long focused on luxury, this marks a shift: investors are now targeting scalable, standardized hotels to meet growing corporate travel and regional HQ demand. AYARA’s fully integrated development and operations model reflects how global capital is adapting to new business opportunities.

In emerging markets, crypto isn't just speculation—it's infrastructure.

It solves real-world problems:
✅ Near-instant remittances
✅ Inflation hedging
✅ Financial inclusion for the unbanked

The top 10 countries alone account for 40% of all users.

The New Heavyweights of crypto Adoption:
🇮🇳India: 123M users. The world's crypto hub.
🇵🇰 Pakistan: 40M users. Fastest growing market with new 2026 regulations.
🇹🇷 Turkey: 25.6% of the population uses crypto for wealth preservation.
South Asia is the "engine room" with an 80% YoY surge.

[Lakshmi Narayanan Ramanujam @luckylnr]

1,000,000,000 users.
Crypto is no longer "emerging"—it’s here. As of 2026, 1 in 8 people on Earth now own digital assets.

But the real story isn't the number. It’s where the growth is coming from.

Walmart & Amazon are exploring STABLECOINS. Here’s why that’s a massive validation of what we’re building at https://t.co/pLtoSWpPQa
@WSJ reports that @Walmart and @Amazon are working on stablecoin to bypass Visa, reduce fees, & gain payment control.
It’s a paradigm shift.
 Stablecoins = financial infrastructure.

Central African Republic 🇨🇫 Wants Countries Behind Russian 🇷🇺 Diamond Ban Suspended From @KimberleyProces By Rob Bates @JCKMagazine

https://t.co/ZzgXWZ15Z4

When Rob Bates reports that "Bin Sulayem declined comment," it's important to clarify:

a) A response was in fact provided - it was simply ignored. Have added my reply below.

b) Rob Bates’s line of questioning was not a genuine inquiry; it was clearly designed as entrapment, either out of bias or ignorance.

For an industry news director to ask the KP Chair - a neutral, procedural role - to comment on any Administrative Decision submitted by KP members for Plenary shows either a complete misunderstanding of the KP's function, or a troubling embrace of the lazy, "gotcha" journalism increasingly seen in mainstream media.

The KP Chair does not opine on, nor unilaterally decide, Administrative Decisions or Written Procedures. These matters are governed by KP rules and must be addressed through Plenary deliberation and consensus.

@JCKMagazine – you can and should do better.

Dear Robert,

Thank you for your message - I'm uncertain which letter you're referring to, however, as you know, any administrative decisions or written procedures are not for the KP Chair to comment or unilaterally decide upon.

Such matters, particularly concerning certification, are formally raised within the Kimberley Process and, in line with its rules and procedures, can only move forward through deliberation and consensus by the Plenary.

As a news director within the jewellery industry I would have assumed you would know this, however, given your extensive history of bad faith reporting, I can't say I'm surprised.

As such, I will ensure your leadership is briefed on my response directly, primarily as your inquiry indicates either bias and or complete incompetence.

Neither of which are worth engaging with.

With Utmost Respect,

Ahmed Bin Sulayem
