GIGATECH harnesses the power of smart connected technology to drive automation, efficiency, and the speed and scale required to unlock lucrative and impactful opportunities in the clean energy transition.

As the world moves toward a sustainable future, GIGATECH is positioned at the forefront, leveraging an advanced technology stack to unlock opportunities across industries. By harnessing the programmability of tokenization, the immutability of blockchain, and the power of AI, GIGATECH is driving transformative value flows and empowering businesses to excel in the economies of tomorrow.

Through the GIGATONS Group companies, GIGATECH is working on supporting a multi-billion-dollar pipeline of opportunities that have the potential to deliver significant impact.  Globally headquartered in Abu Dhabi Global Markets ‘The Capital of Capital’ and launching alongside Abu Dhabi Finance Week and Bitcoin MENA the group are working with the UAE Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure (MOEI), the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO), Abu Dhabi’s Integrated Transport Centre (Abu Dhabi Mobility), and are announcing a host of major partnerships:

  • Investment: with Delphi, and investment partnership with Wise Capital Partners
  • International: Australian Partner Network with Flow Power
  • Blockchain: with Alephium, and Hearst Corporation
  • M&A: of All-Infra into GIGATONS

GIGATECH’s core value is delivered through the GIGA Protocol a suite of highly composable smart connected products that reimagines the way value and information are transferred.  At the heart of this value chain is a pervasive layer of transparency and trust realised across four pillars of smart connected: Capital, Assets, Carbon, & Data.  This transformative application suite forms a cohesive framework for addressing the most pressing challenges of our time and opens the doors to a multi-trillion-dollar market of transition era opportunities.

Unlocking Opportunity through Innovation

  • Tokenization: By digitizing assets and carbon credits, GIGATECH enables programmability across capital, real world assets, carbon impact, and AI native data. This provides a host benefits including: smart contract automation, disintermediation, fractional ownership, and democratized access to value creation, making it easier to fund and scale sustainable projects.
  • Real-World Assets (RWA): Integrating RWAs with blockchain technology allows GIGATECH to bring tangible value to the digital space, connecting physical assets with transparent and efficient markets.
  • Blockchain: At the heart of GIGATECH’s strategy, blockchain ensures secure, immutable, and decentralized solutions for data and value transfer, fostering trust and accountability. GIGATECH is building its technology stack natively on Alephium, a groundbreaking layer one blockchain that offers unparalleled performances in the areas of scalability, security, programmability and sustainability.

  • Metaverse Digital Twins: By creating virtual replicas of physical systems, GIGATECH facilitates scenario modelling and real-time monitoring, enabling informed decision-making at a global scale in a visually intuitive environment.

The Future of Smart Connectivity

GIGATECH envisions a future where “smart” meets “connected” in transformative ways. By integrating AI (“smart”) with blockchain technology (“connected”), the company is removing many of the existing frictions in global systems. However, in pursuit of a smart connected future it is equally imperative to ensure these cutting-edge digital infrastructures are carbon net zero themselves.

One of many exciting projects and partnerships being announced this week seeks to tackle this, GIGATECH is partnering with HEARST Corporation and Alephium to deliver the world’s first end-to-end tokenised green blockchain mining and AI datacentre projects, with a Wise Capital partnership with GIGACAPITAL for tokenised funding solutions.  The POC project will be one of the first use cases for the GIGA Protocol and sews the seeds of ambition to substantially scale green blockchain mining and green data centre projects globally in 2025. 


Unlocking the vast potential of the transition era requires us to go beyond mere ambition; it demands a paradigm shift,” said Heston Harper, CEO of GIGATECH. “We must break free from the old, linear approaches that confine tomorrow to yesterday’s thinking. The climate-aligned economy isn’t just a future possibility—it IS the future.  To build it, transparency and trust are non-negotiable. The GIGA Protocol is engineered to deliver these principles immutably, empowered by automated intelligence, to the areas that matter most. The global economy is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by policies and market forces that is sparking innovation across industries and supply chains. As stakeholders seize the opportunities of the transition era, the pace of change will only accelerate, at camp GIGATECH we are obsessively focussed at helping to unlock that collective action at an unprecedented scale,”

MAGAcoin and JAECOIN, a new trend and instability created by the combination of politics and cryptocurrencies”

Published

on

MAGAcoin and JAECOIN have created a new investment trend by combining politics and cryptocurrency. MAGAcoin was based on former US President Donald Trump’s political message “Make America Great Again,” while JAECOIN gained attention as a meme coin linked to candidate Lee Jae-myung’s digital economy platform. Both coins exploded in popularity by combining political events and popular sentiment, but in the process exposed themselves to extreme volatility and instability.

MAGA has seen its value rise and fall in response to Trump’s comments and political events. When Trump made pro-crypto comments, MAGAcoin saw more than 1000% increase in one-day trading volume, but after his guilty verdict in a sex scandal trial, MAGAcoin plummeted, causing investors to lose a lot of money. This highlights the problem that the price of political meme coins is overly dependent on the risk of a particular person.

JAECOIN was buoyed by Lee Jae-myung’s promise of digital transformation and support from the younger generation, especially as his popularity grew, but it also had the potential to be unstable if the political situation turned unfavorable. This shows that Memecoin can be overly sensitive to political events, which can undermine market confidence.

Political memecoins have expanded the cryptocurrency market beyond mere fun to new political and economic platforms, but they also present structural problems of extreme price volatility and speculation. Experts warn that while these memecoins can provide short-term returns and excitement for investors, their inherently unstable nature makes it difficult to build long-term trust. The cases of MAGAcoin and JAECOIN have shown that cryptocurrencies can be a powerful tool for political messaging, but they also warn of the dangers of potential market crashes.
