How Cebu coped with back-to-back disasters in 2025

2025/12/11 17:00

CEBU, Philippines – At late evening on September 30, 2025, Cebuanos found themselves shaken by a strong magnitude 6.9 earthquake that struck Bogo City. Along with nearby towns in the north, Bogo suffered from dozens of deaths, severe damage to housing and infrastructure, and aftershocks that have lasted for months.

To make matters worse, just around a month later on November 4, Typhoon Tino (Kalmaegi) wreaked havoc in the Visayas, causing widespread flooding especially in Cebu.

2025 has been a traumatic year for Cebuanos as it reeled from disasters that happened back to back. Here are some stories from people who dealt with the aftermath.

Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23

The post Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SAB adopts Chainlink’s CCIP and CRE to expand tokenization and cross-border finance tools. SAB and Wamid target $2.32T Saudi capital markets with blockchain-based tokenization plans. LINK price falls 2.43% to $22.99 despite higher trading volume and steady liquidity ratios. Saudi Awwal Bank has added Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to its digital strategy. CCIP links assets and data across multiple blockchains, while CRE provides banks with a controlled framework to test and deploy new financial applications. The lender, with more than $100 billion in assets, is applying the tools to tokenized assets, cross-border settlement, and automated credit platforms. The move signals that Chainlink’s infrastructure is being adopted at scale inside regulated finance.

That transaction gave regulators a template for compliant on-chain contracts. The Wamid deal builds directly on that precedent, shifting from single-instrument pilots toward broader capital markets integration. Saudi Blockchain Buildout Gains Pace Saudi institutions are building multiple layers of digital infrastructure. Oumla is working with Avalanche to develop the Kingdom’s first domestically hosted Layer 1 blockchain. SAB’s Chainlink adoption adds an interoperability and execution layer on top. Together, these projects are shaping a domestic framework for tokenization, with global connectivity added only where liquidity requires it.
