Anghami Teases Possible Cryptocurrency Token
Anghami may soon bring 70 million users into Web 3.0 with its new cryptocurrency token.
Anghami, one of the MENA region’s most popular music streaming services has hinted through its co-founder, Elie Habib, the possibility of creating their own cryptocurrency token known as “Anghami” token.
Earlier today, Habib posted a screenshot of his personal Anghami account showing a new section which would potentially allow users to connect their MetaMask or Rainbow Ethereum wallets in order to start earning the company’s new token as well as invest in select artists and podcasters.
As a caption for Habib’s post, he wrote “Probably nothing” which makes users believe that the company is most probably up to something interesting.

UAE Comes Out Strongly In Guinness World Records 2023
Guinness, the renowned cataloger of record-breaking events, has released its latest annual, after sifting through 40,000 applications — and the Arab world is heavily featured.
Guinness World Records, the authority on record-breaking global achievements, has just announced its latest release, “Guinness World Records 2023 (GWR2023),” which will be available online and in physical stores across the Arab region from today.
As usual, GWR 2023 features all of the latest achievements from around the world (and space!), with special features and updated graphics to bring the stories to life.
So why the interest in the latest Guinness installment? Well, it turns out the Arab Region is strongly represented in the book, with more than 50 records featured in the new edition, which is no mean feat considering the volume of competition.
“We’ve sifted through nearly 40,000 record applications over the past year to bring you Guinness World Records 2023. People from all walks of life continue to be fascinated by extremes, and we’ve received claims from across the planet – indeed, even from space! This is why I’ve said the new edition is out of this world,” says Craig Glenday, Guinness Editor in Chief.
Of interest to readers of this platform, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates both get to flex their record-breaking muscles.
