DAMAC: Thriving Amid Chaos

While missiles fly across the Middle East, DAMAC is booming. Dubai's political neutrality, record property prices, and DAMAC's Trump-aligned connections have made it a safe haven magnet. Hussain Sajwani's net worth doubled to $10.2B in 2025. The chaos isn't hurting DAMAC — it's feeding it.

The DAMAC–MANTRA Deal: Big Promise, Rough Reality

In January 2025, MANTRA signed a $1 billion deal with DAMAC to tokenize its portfolio spanning real estate, hospitality, and data centers, a landmark moment for Real World Asset (RWA) crypto. OM surged over 6,400% in 2024 on the back of deals like this.

Then came the crash.

On April 13, 2025, OM collapsed 90%, erasing roughly $5.5 billion in market cap. The team blamed forced liquidations on centralized exchanges, but accusations of insider dumping lingered.

Where OM Stands Today

OM is trading at roughly $0.07 — down 99.3% from its all-time high of $9.00 reached in February 2025. A token unlock of 9.44M OM is due on March 18, 2026 just 17 days away, adding near-term selling pressure.

Technical indicators are bearish across all timeframes: the 50-day and 200-day moving averages are both falling and sitting above the current price, acting as resistance.

The Tension: Strong Story, Weak Chart

DAMAC booming, Dubai thriving, 🟢 Bullish for RWA narrative

$1B tokenization deal intact, 🟢 Fundamental backing

Regional conflict escalating, 🔴 Risk-off crypto sentiment

OM down 99% from ATH, 🔴 Trust shattered

Short-Term Outlook

DAMAC's success is real — but it hasn't translated into OM price recovery. In the short term, OM faces headwinds: trading is currently paused on some exchanges amid MANTRA's rebrand and coin upgrade, Asia property Awards, shrinking the buyer pool. The Iran–Israel–US escalation today adds broader risk-off pressure across crypto markets.

Bottom line: DAMAC is arguably the best endorsement the RWA sector has. But in the short term, OM is a high-risk speculative play — the DAMAC partnership is a long-term thesis, not a near-term catalyst. Proceed with caution.
