Construction starts on 350-m high Trump Tower Dubai

2025/12/11 13:40

Construction has started on the 350-metre-high Trump Tower Dubai, according to the London-listed developer Dar Global.

The global development arm of the Saudi-listed Dar Al Arkan has awarded the enabling works contract for the AED2 billion ($545 million) Trump International Hotel & Tower to Edrafor Emirates, a local contractor.

Edrafor Emirates will undertake the enabling and foundational works required to prepare the site for full construction, Dar Global said in a statement. The scope includes ground engineering, deep enabling systems and logistical mobilisation.

In October, Dar Global CEO Ziad El Chaar told AGBI that the plot on Sheikh Zayed Road, next to the Shangri-La Hotel, was previously leasehold but had been converted to freehold under property laws introduced about six months ago.

The project will offer one- to four-bedroom apartments and penthouses with views of the Arabian Gulf, the Dubai skyline, and Burj Khalifa. Prices start at AED1.7 million ($463,000).

The 80-floor tower will feature Dubai’s “highest” outdoor pool and two penthouses inspired by New York’s Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue.

The expected completion date is December 2031, according to the developer’s website.

This month the developer appointed the main contractor for the SAR2 billion Trump Tower on the Jeddah Corniche.

Dar Global has partnered with the Trump Organization on several developments in the Gulf, including Trump-branded villas in Muscat, Oman, a planned tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and more in Riyadh.

The company has $12.5 billion of projects under development and a presence in nine countries, including the UAE, Oman, Qatar, the UK, Spain and Saudi Arabia.

CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October

The post CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group is preparing to launch options on SOL and XRP futures next month, giving traders new ways to manage exposure to the two assets.  The contracts are set to go live on October 13, pending regulatory approval, and will come in both standard and micro sizes with expiries offered daily, monthly and quarterly. The new listings mark a major step for CME, which first brought bitcoin futures to market in 2017 and added ether contracts in 2021. Solana and XRP futures have quickly gained traction since their debut earlier this year. CME says more than 540,000 Solana contracts (worth about $22.3 billion), and 370,000 XRP contracts (worth $16.2 billion), have already been traded. Both products hit record trading activity and open interest in August. Market makers including Cumberland and FalconX plan to support the new contracts, arguing that institutional investors want hedging tools beyond bitcoin and ether. CME’s move also highlights the growing demand for regulated ways to access a broader set of digital assets. The launch, which still needs the green light from regulators, follows the end of XRP’s years-long legal fight with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. A federal court ruling in 2023 found that institutional sales of XRP violated securities laws, but programmatic exchange sales did not. The case officially closed in August 2025 after Ripple agreed to pay a $125 million fine, removing one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the token. This is a developing story.
