QatarEnergy has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Egypt’s petroleum ministry to supply liquefied natural gas (LNG) during the summer to meet domestic demand.

The state-backed company will supply up to 24 LNG cargoes for the summer of 2026, it said in a statement.

“The MoU strengthens our bilateral relationship as we work jointly towards additional supplies of long-term LNG to meet Egypt’s growing demand for energy to fuel its robust economic and industrial growth,” QatarEnergy CEO Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi said.

The two entities also agreed to initiate discussions on additional, long-term LNG supplies to Egypt.

Egypt’s current natural gas production is estimated at 4.2 billion cubic feet per day, while domestic demand is 6.2 billion cubic feet per day, forcing the country to import LNG to bridge the supply-demand gap.

Cairo launched a seismic survey last month to explore for oil and gas in sites that form nearly 10 percent of the country’s area.

The country plans to drill 101 oil and gas wells in 2026 as part of a $5.7 billion investment plan approved by the government in 2025 to “spud” (start drilling) 480 wells over the next five years.

U.S. Court Finds Pastor Found Guilty in $3M Crypto Scam

The post U.S. Court Finds Pastor Found Guilty in $3M Crypto Scam appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crime 18 September 2025 | 04:05 A Colorado judge has brought closure to one of the state’s most unusual cryptocurrency scandals, declaring INDXcoin to be a fraudulent operation and ordering its founders, Denver pastor Eli Regalado and his wife Kaitlyn, to repay $3.34 million. The ruling, issued by District Court Judge Heidi L. Kutcher, came nearly two years after the couple persuaded hundreds of people to invest in their token, promising safety and abundance through a Christian-branded platform called the Kingdom Wealth Exchange. The scheme ran between June 2022 and April 2023 and drew in more than 300 participants, many of them members of local church networks. Marketing materials portrayed INDXcoin as a low-risk gateway to prosperity, yet the project unraveled almost immediately. The exchange itself collapsed within 24 hours of launch, wiping out investors’ money. Despite this failure—and despite an auditor’s damning review that gave the system a “0 out of 10” for security—the Regalados kept presenting it as a solid opportunity. Colorado regulators argued that the couple’s faith-based appeal was central to the fraud. Securities Commissioner Tung Chan said the Regalados “dressed an old scam in new technology” and used their standing within the Christian community to convince people who had little knowledge of crypto. For him, the case illustrates how modern digital assets can be exploited to replicate classic Ponzi-style tactics under a different name. Court filings revealed where much of the money ended up: luxury goods, vacations, jewelry, a Range Rover, high-end clothing, and even dental procedures. In a video that drew worldwide attention earlier this year, Eli Regalado admitted the funds had been spent, explaining that a portion went to taxes while the remainder was used for a home renovation he claimed was divinely inspired. The judgment not only confirms that INDXcoin qualifies as a…
