Artificial intelligence is creating a new class of infrastructure giants virtually overnight, and one innovative Bitcoin miner that made an early leap into the global power business, feeding the voracious appetite of AI data centers, is now being rewarded for years spent securing massive amounts of low-cost electrical power around the world. Years before artificial intelligence triggered a global race for power capacity, Bitzero Holdings (NASDAQ: AIBZ) was using cash flow from Bitcoin mining operations to secure large amounts of low-cost electrical power across Norway, Finland, and the United States. The company continues mining Bitcoin because the business generates strong cash flow at some of the lowest power costs in the industry. But Bitzero’s sights are now set on a much larger prize: the AI data-center buildout that McKinsey estimates could require nearly $7 trillion in global infrastructure spending by 2030, including roughly $5.2 trillion tied directly to AI workloads alone. That prize started becoming reality on May 5, when Bitzero signed a binding letter of intent with OneQode Networks covering the full 110 MW capacity of its Namsskogan, Norway data center site under a 15-year lease tied to GPU-based AI workloads. The agreement carries an implied value of roughly $2.6 billion over the lease term, and marks Bitzero’s formal entry into the large-scale AI data-center infrastructure market. That’s exactly why Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary was one of Bitzero’s earliest, and biggest backers. O’Leary has taken on a strategic investor role in the company since its formation because he sees Bitzero as a fundamentally different kind of crypto enterprise—one rooted in energy infrastructure, not just speculation, and the data-center boom. “If I want exposure to crypto, I only need three positions now … I own Bitzero because they mine Bitcoin and they’re actually a power company.” The Nordic Advantage in the AI Energy Race If cheap power built Bitcoin’s first fortune in China, clean power is building the next one in the North Atlantic. Norway and Finland, home to immense hydroelectric and nuclear baseloads, have quietly become the new gravity centers for digital infrastructure. This is the place to be for the AI infrastructure boom. Power prices across parts of the Nordic region are significantly below many major European markets. And, crucially, hydroelectric- and nuclear-heavy grids provide the kind of stable long-duration electricity AI workloads demand. Cold climates also drastically reduce cooling costs for data centers. That’s the geography of Bitzero’s expansion strategy. In Norway, the company’s flagship Namsskogan operation already supports active Bitcoin mining and is now becoming the foundation for its AI infrastructure business following the OneQode agreement earlier this month. Bitzero also controls additional Norwegian expansion capacity tied to a broader development pipeline that management says could eventually scale well beyond 300 MW as grid upgrades continue. In Finland, Bitzero has secured a massive one-gigawatt development campus in Kokemäki tied directly into low-cost Nordic power infrastructure. The site gives the company room to scale both Bitcoin mining and AI compute operations over time as demand for energized capacity continues accelerating across Europe. In the United States, Bitzero’s (NASDAQ: AIBZ) North Dakota footprint gives the company exposure to a completely different energy and regulatory market. The site includes a 225,000-square-foot complex spread across roughly 184 acres, with additional staged power delivery planned through future expansion agreements. What the May 5th Lease Deal Means for Bitzero McKinsey estimates AI infrastructure spending could approach $7 trillion globally by 2030, including more than $5 trillion tied directly to AI workloads. But that spending wave could hit a power wall as the industry discovers that building AI infrastructure isn’t just a money problem—it’s a power access problem. The OneQode agreement officially ushers Bitzero into the lucrative world of data center power. Now, instead of relying on Bitcoin-related mining economics, the company is moving toward a much bigger piece of the digital world. And it’s a double win for the company. In Bitcoin mining, Bitzero uses its own electricity to generate revenue from the Bitcoin it produces. Under the AI agreement, Bitzero will generate revenue by leasing the site’s power capacity and infrastructure to OneQode the lease is to be backed by an IG counterparty as per the conditions of the binding letter. But at the same time, OneQode pays the electricity bill tied to running the AI systems inside the facility. That means Bitzero captures the recurring infrastructure revenue from the site without directly absorbing the massive ongoing power costs associated with operating large-scale AI workloads. That places Bitzero at an advantage to its peers, based on internal company research. According to management, the OneQode agreement is structured at roughly $135 per kilowatt per month with a 3% annual escalator. At full utilization, the 110 MW Namsskogan site could generate roughly $176 million to $178 million in annual revenue. A recent shareholder analysis modeling the agreement estimated potential annual NOI of roughly $151 million based on an 85% margin profile tied to the contemplated lease structure. The Bigger Game At the Margins of the Data Center Boom Across Europe and North America, AI infrastructure developers are running into transformer shortages, interconnection delays, grid congestion, and multi-year energization timelines. Many competing campuses are still years away from delivery because securing large-scale power infrastructure has become harder than securing capital. That shift is one reason public markets have started aggressively rerating companies capable of converting mining infrastructure into AI compute capacity. Most recently, Hut 8 moved into AI infrastructure through its Fluidstack agreement, while Core Scientific secured multi-billion-dollar HPC contracts tied to CoreWeave. Investors are increasingly valuing these companies around contracted compute infrastructure and energized capacity rather than hash rate growth alone. The capital is simply following the soaring demand. The market has already begun rewarding companies positioned to benefit from the power demands of artificial intelligence. Investors have poured capital into names such as NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE), whose vast renewable generation portfolio is increasingly viewed as critical to supporting future data-center growth, Brookfield Corporation (NYSE: BN), which has built a global infrastructure empire spanning energy, transmission, and digital assets, and Edison International (NYSE: EIX), whose utility network stands to benefit from the enormous grid upgrades required to accommodate AI-driven electricity demand. The common thread is simple: as AI accelerates, access to reliable power is becoming one of the most valuable assets in the digital economy. Commercial real estate giant JLL estimates global data-center capacity will nearly double by 2030, requiring almost 100 GW of new supply. Now, the single most important factor driving data-center expansion is “speed to power”, says JLL. And with grid connection wait times in major markets already stretching beyond four years, Bitzero is ahead of its time, and the May 5th lease deal locks in a new era for this Bitcoin innovator, backed by O’Leary and charging out of the AI power gate.

WhatsApp, a Meta subsidiary, boasts 500 million users in India but has struggled to popularize its payment tool, WhatsApp Pay, in the country's competitive digital payments space. Meanwhile, in May, Meta launched consumer-facing subscriptions under "Plus" plans across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, indicating a strategic shift towards a subscription-based model. Meta's investment in CRED and Shah's move to WhatsApp come at a time when Meta is expanding its footprint in India. Earlier in June, Meta announced a partnership with Reliance to build a 168-megawatt facility in Jamnagar, Gujarat, to support Meta's global infrastructure and AI computing requirements. Following Shah's departure, Miten Sampat , previously responsible for strategy and finance at CRED, will serve as interim CEO. The board is also working on "constituting the right leadership structure towards eventual IPO," according to the company. It's been a minute. 2015–2018 – Exited FreeCharge. Spent time learning and investing. – Pondered about: Why can't trust be rewarded? Started with $1M of personal capital. – Launched CRED to reward people for paying credit card bills on time. 2019–2025 – Built a system run by a… "Meta comes in as a minority investor in CRED. No access to member data. While it's come very far, the delta between WhatsApp today and its full potential is massive," wrote Shah on X. Still Learning the Market? These 50 Must-Know Terms Can Help You Catch Up Fast With a valuation exceeding $4 billion in its latest funding round, CRED plans to use the funds to "accelerate growth, build institutional muscle, and extend its leadership across categories." CRED, a platform that rewards users for timely credit card bill payments, now handles more than 40% of India's credit card bill payment volume. Notably, Meta's investment does not include access to CRED's user data; instead, the company gains Shah's expertise as he joins WhatsApp, succeeding Will Cathcart . Meta Platforms Inc. has committed $900 million through a Series H funding round in Indian fintech startup CRED on Monday. In a parallel move, CRED founder and CEO Kunal Shah is set to lead WhatsApp globally, strengthening Meta's push into digital payments and financial services. Story Continues Analyst Sees A Disguised Pattern Author and independent analyst Shanaka Anslem Perera called the Meta's latest move "an acqui-hire wearing a minority stake as a disguise." See Also: Skip the Regrets: The Essential Retirement Tips Experts Wish Everyone Knew Earlier. Perera highlighted that Meta used a similar playbook with Scale AI, investing over $14 billion and recruiting founder Alexandr Wang to lead a new AI lab. The strategy signals a broader shift: rather than acquiring entire companies and facing regulatory hurdles, Big Tech is increasingly taking minority stakes while hiring founders. In markets like India, where data-localization and foreign-ownership rules complicate takeovers, this approach allows companies like Meta to gain talent and strategic influence without acquiring control. "Two deals, one pattern, and the pattern is the headline nobody is printing," he wrote on X Meta just paid 900 million dollars to hire one man. The 20 percent of an Indian fintech that came attached was almost beside the point. Here is how you know. Meta gets no board seat and no access to the company's data. None.

When Delta Airlines charged Marie Duggan, an economic historian visiting Oaxaca, Mexico, $1,200 to change a scheduled flight to the United States, she was so angry she cancelled and booked a cross-border nighttime bus ride instead. Duggan thought Delta’s price increase to fly to Phoenix instead of San Francisco, at twice the price of a one-way flight to Phoenix, was an insult and a rip-off. So she took a $250 flight on Aeromexico to Hermosillo, in the north-western state of Sonora, and then a $59 bus across the Mexico border. Sonora is on the US state department’s ‘reconsider travel’ list because of terrorism and crime, Duggan acknowledged, and she was “exhausted” after the trip. But she was also pleased not to have to pay Delta the money. “I thought, ‘Ha! You think I have no choice, but I know that there is a bus,” she said in an interview. “So I will slip out of your grasp.” A Delta spokesman said that, like the rest of the industry, it relies on “dynamic ticket prices” with “clear rules that determine pricing based on objective details”. For the past 100 years, US consumers have powered the US economy, their $21tn in annual spending supported by the business ethos that the “customer is king.” Today, that idea is as outdated as a Norman Rockwell painting, say consumer activists, historians, analysts, executives and customers themselves. Instead, consumers are bearing the brunt of sweeping developments in the business landscape. Decades of mergers have limited consumer options. Companies are so big they can push industry-friendly regulation and charge what they want, safe in the knowledge that disgruntled customers have nowhere to go. No wonder consumers feel so squeezed, disrespected and preyed upon. As a result, they are becoming “reactive”, said Alexander DePaoli, a Northeastern University marketing professor who studies consumer anger. They’re starting to see brands as “a rival or an adversary” and are trying to beat them at their own game. The power dynamics are out of whack, though, that dangerous bus rides and product boycotts are no answer. A broader fix may be necessary if the United States is to return to its customer service glory years. “Asking why [companies] went ‘bad’ is like asking why a company that sells reasonably priced goods on the near side of the TSA checkpoint is charging $15 for water on the far side of the TSA checkpoint,” at an airport, said Cory Doctorow, author of Enshitification: Why everything suddenly got worse and what to do about it. “It’s not because they’re evil, it’s because you can’t go anywhere else to buy your water.” Trapped consumers, soaring profits A feeling of forever being ripped off helps explain why consumers have never felt more pessimistic, even though the US economy, by the numbers, continues to perform well. US consumer sentiment, tracked for over 60 years by the University of Michigan, has hit a new low, thanks to cost-of-living increases many say are eroding their personal finances. At the same time customer complaints about goods and services are at record levels, and surged 16% in the first quarter, according to the university’s American Customer Satisfaction Index, which has tracked the figure since 1994. Yet unhappy customers decide to stay with the companies they do business with – because they may think either that another company will treat them as badly, or they simply don’t have an option. “Paradoxically, and contrary to what occurs in efficient markets, customer retention has increased,” the satisfaction index’s founder, Claes Fornell, wrote in May. In many cases, Americans just have no other options, unlike in other developed consumer economies, where stricter anti-monopoly policing has protected competition. In the UK, “I have multiple choices of broadband supplier and energy supplier,” explains Marcus Herbert, the editor of Money Saving Expert, an influential British consumer advocate website. “Consumers have true power in a world where they can switch their business to another provider.” With customers stuck and competitors gone, companies can raise prices without improving customer satisfaction, Fornell explained in February. “These are not signs of a healthy economy,” he added. Corporate profits after tax jumped sharply during Covid, and hit a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $3.7tn by the end of 2024, about double what they were in 2012. Despite a hit from tariffs at the end of 2025 and the impact of the US and Israel war with Iran, they jumped again in recent months, to $3.9tn in the first quarter of 2026. The pandemic “accelerated the transition toward the digital economy, which likely helped firms, particularly those in the retail and wholesale trade industries, produce more with fewer resources”, St Louis Fed’s economist, Ricardo Martin, explained. As a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) – the widest measure of the US economy – corporate profits hit a post second world war high of 15.8% in the fourth quarter of 2025. At the same time, employee compensation, as a share of GDP, has dropped to less than 10%. The gap between company profits and employee compensation, as a share of GDP, has never been greater, notes KPMG chief economist, Diane C Swonk. It is essentially “a measure of inequality, which creates social and economic instability”. The French revolution, she notes dryly, “is an extreme example” of that instability. Consolidation’s benefits dry up Things feel so bad, especially for older Americans, because many had it so good for years. Being a US consumer through the later decades of the 1900s was marked by how much more stuff, in the form of goods and some services, many people could afford than generations before. Consumers had consolidation to thank for relatively lower prices and greater choice, even as big box stores like Walmart hollowed out downtowns and left behind low-wage jobs. Goods prices, compared to income, plummeted as manufacturing moved overseas and big national retailers grew, squeezed out economies of scale and took control of distribution networks. The introduction of Amazon exacerbated that lower prices trend. “As frustrated as people are in the US, there is a decline between 1990 and 2012 of 33% cost of retail goods as related to your income,” said Sergio Ocampo, an economics professor at the University of Western Ontario who researches retail concentration. “That is almost impossible to achieve without the efficiency gains from consolidation.” The sharp declines in retail prices stalled by the end of the 2010s, Ocampo notes, and the infrastructure that these giant companies control is a hurdle to new players. “There is nothing new coming … now if you want to start a new retail business you run into problems,” he said. Food, airlines and telecoms have similar trajectories. Four giant food-producing companies control at least 50% of the market for the most popular groceries Americans buy, a 2021 Guardian investigation found. The relative cost of airfare plummeted in the 1970s, making air travel affordable for the masses, it is now creeping up and service complaints hit new records in 2024. Over 20 airlines in the 1970s have merged into seven, just four airlines control nearly 70% of total market share and one airline dominates market share in several major domestic airports. And a series of multi-billion dollar telecom mergers in recent years has been followed by broadcast consolidation that’s creating a dangerous concentration of one-stop information, mobile, internet and entertainment giants. Michael Mooney, a retired small business owner in Holland, Michigan, navigated long wait times, grating ad loops, multiple hangups and an argument with a company representative before he could cancel his cable package with Spectrum. The company charged him $170 per month to keep his internet, then started raising the price. “I would jump to another company in a heartbeat, but as with many people I’m sure, there is no alternative company where I live … What a racket. I thought regional monopolies were illegal,” Mooney told the Guardian. A tipping point? All that consumer rage can be channeled, says Doctorow, who recommends getting involved in very local politics to address specific problems. For example, community-owned broadband networks to address telecom deserts have been backed by voters and residents across the political spectrum. “The only Americans who like their internet are Americans with municipal fiber, and most of them are rural red state towns,” he said. Bipartisan lawmakers have introduced 40 bills in 24 states to curb ‘surveillance pricing’ in which companies use personal data to set individual prices, so far in 2026. New class action lawsuits are taking on JetBlue and other companies over the issue. Consumers’ rising outrage is part of a growing awareness that many of these business practices are a destructive force on the economy, said Lindsay Owens, the executive director of the Groundwork Collaborative, a Washington thinktank aimed at increasing public power. “The incredible exponential growth in efforts to contain dynamic pricing suggests we may be reaching a tipping point,” she said. And local authorities are stepping up. States and cities are “really taking up the mantle on this and doing great work”, on passing rules on junk fees and surveillance pricing, said Susan Weinstock, the CEO of the Consumer Federation of America, an umbrella group of consumer activists. “Once California and New York pass the laws, industry has to listen because that’s a lot of customers,” she said. The Guardian is examining the increasingly antagonistic relationship between companies and consumers in the United States.

"الإقامة الذهبية" في لبنان: لماذا أثار مشروع لجذب المستثمرين موجة سخرية؟ صدر الصورة، Getty Images Published قبل 4 ساعة مدة القراءة: 6 دقائق أثار إقرار لجنة المال والموازنة في البرلمان اللبناني مشروع قانون يمنح ما سمي "الإقامة الذهبية" أو "الإقامة الضريبية" لمن يستثمر ما لا يقل عن 500 ألف دولار في لبنان، موجة واسعة من الانتقادات والسخرية على منصات التواصل الاجتماعي. وتقول اللجنة إن المشروع يهدف إلى جذب رؤوس أموال جديدة، وخلق فرص عمل، وتعزيز إيرادات الخزينة، في بلد يحاول الخروج من واحدة من أعمق أزماته المالية والاقتصادية منذ عام 2019. لكن ردود الفعل الشعبية جاءت، في معظمها، مشككة في جدوى الطرح. فقد ركز منتقدون على سؤال أساسي: كيف يمكن للبنان أن يقنع مستثمراً أجنبياً بضخ نصف مليون دولار في اقتصاده، بينما لا تزال أموال كثير من المودعين عالقة في المصارف، وتبقى قطاعات الكهرباء والمياه والبنية التحتية موضع انتقاد واسع؟ ماذا أقرت لجنة المال والموازنة؟ صدر الصورة، NNA التعليق على الصورة، خلال اجتماع لجنة المال والموازنة الذي أقرت فيه مشروع "الإقامة الذهبية". وقال رئيس لجنة المال والموازنة النيابية، إبراهيم كنعان، إن اللجنة أقرت مشروع "الإقامة الذهبية" للمستثمرين الأجانب بقيمة 500 ألف دولار، موضحاً أن المشروع الحكومي يمنح غير المقيمين في لبنان، سواء كانوا أجانب أو لبنانيين يعملون في الخارج، إقامة مرتبطة باستثمار لا يقل عن هذا المبلغ. وأشار كنعان إلى أن الاستثمار سيكون في ثلاثة مجالات، مع مراعاة قانون تملك الأجانب بالنسبة إلى العقارات، على أن تُحوّل الأموال من الخارج، وأن تخضع لإجراءات تدقيق وامتثال مشددة لمنع تبييض الأموال. كما تحدث عن رسم سنوي لا يقل عن 50 ألف دولار عن كل فرد من أفراد العائلة يرغب في الاستفادة من الإقامة. وقال كنعان إن المشروع يمكن أن "يخلق فرص عمل ويدخل الأموال إلى خزينة الدولة ويشجع الاستثمارات عند توفر الظروف والشروط". غير أن إقرار المشروع في لجنة نيابية لا يعني أنه أصبح قانوناً نافذاً، إذ لا يزال يحتاج إلى عرضه على الهيئة العامة للبرلمان وإقراره، قبل استكمال الإجراءات القانونية اللازمة لتطبيقه. أهمل X مشاركة, 1 هل تسمح بعرض المحتوى من X؟ تحتوي هذه الصفحة على محتوى من موقع X. موافقتكم مطلوبة قبل عرض أي مواد لأنها قد تتضمن ملفات ارتباط (كوكيز) وغيرها من الأدوات التقنية. قد تفضلون الاطلاع على سياسة ملفات الارتباط الخاصة بموقع X وسياسة الخصوصية قبل الموافقة. لعرض المحتوى، اختر "موافقة وإكمال" Accept and continue تحذير: بي بي سي غير مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية نهاية X مشاركة, 1 المحتوى غير متاح X اطلع على المزيد في بي بي سي ليست مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية. لماذا أثار المشروع كل هذا الجدل؟ صدر الصورة، AFP via Getty Images لا يمكن فصل النقاش عن السياق اللبناني الأوسع. فمنذ عام 2019، يعيش لبنان أزمة مالية ومصرفية عميقة قيّدت وصول المودعين إلى أموالهم، وأدت إلى انهيار العملة وتراجع القدرة الشرائية واتساع الهجرة، خصوصاً بين الشباب وأصحاب الكفاءات. كما لا تزال الثقة بالمصارف والدولة في صلب الأزمة، في ظل تعثر إعادة هيكلة القطاع المصرفي، وعدم إنجاز اتفاق نهائي مع صندوق النقد الدولي، وبقاء لبنان على اللائحة الرمادية لمجموعة العمل المالي. لذلك، رأى كثيرون أن طرح "إقامة ذهبية" في هذا التوقيت يتجاهل السؤال الأهم لأي مستثمر: هل توجد بيئة آمنة وشفافة ومستقرة لحماية الاستثمار؟ وعند مراجعة التفاعل المتاح على منصة "إكس"، برزت التعليقات الناقدة بشكل طاغٍ، من دون أن يظهر دفاع واضح عن الفكرة كما طُرحت، باستثناء مواقف محدودة لم ترفض المبدأ بالكامل لكنها ربطت نجاحه بالشفافية والرقابة ومصدر الأموال. "في أي بنك ستوضع الأموال؟" من أبرز الانتقادات جاء موقف وديع عقل، عضو المكتب السياسي في التيار الوطني الحر، الذي وصف الطرح بأنه يأتي بعد ما سماه كذبة "الليرة بخير"، معتبراً أن "الإقامة الذهبية" تبدو "مزحة سمجة" من لجنة المال والموازنة. وتساءل عقل: "في أي بنك مفلس ستوضع؟ وأي عقد سيُوقّع مع مصارف لا تعيد أموال المودعين؟"، واصفاً الفكرة بأنها قد تكون "خسارة فوق خسارة" أو "عملية احتيال جديدة". أهمل X مشاركة, 2 هل تسمح بعرض المحتوى من X؟ تحتوي هذه الصفحة على محتوى من موقع X. موافقتكم مطلوبة قبل عرض أي مواد لأنها قد تتضمن ملفات ارتباط (كوكيز) وغيرها من الأدوات التقنية. قد تفضلون الاطلاع على سياسة ملفات الارتباط الخاصة بموقع X وسياسة الخصوصية قبل الموافقة. لعرض المحتوى، اختر "موافقة وإكمال" Accept and continue تحذير: بي بي سي غير مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية نهاية X مشاركة, 2 المحتوى غير متاح X اطلع على المزيد في بي بي سي ليست مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية. الصحافية جويل بو يونس، سخرت بدورها من الطرح، فكتبت أن لبنان يعرض "إقامة لبنانية ذهبية بـ500 ألف دولار" في وقت يبحث فيه اللبنانيون عن بلد يهاجرون إليه، مشيرة إلى أن الإقامة في اليونان يمكن الحصول عليها مقابل استثمار أقل "وبيطلعلكن معا بيت". أهمل X مشاركة, 3 هل تسمح بعرض المحتوى من X؟ تحتوي هذه الصفحة على محتوى من موقع X. موافقتكم مطلوبة قبل عرض أي مواد لأنها قد تتضمن ملفات ارتباط (كوكيز) وغيرها من الأدوات التقنية. قد تفضلون الاطلاع على سياسة ملفات الارتباط الخاصة بموقع X وسياسة الخصوصية قبل الموافقة. لعرض المحتوى، اختر "موافقة وإكمال" Accept and continue تحذير: بي بي سي غير مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية نهاية X مشاركة, 3 المحتوى غير متاح X اطلع على المزيد في بي بي سي ليست مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية. أما جوانا ضاهر فربطت الفكرة بأزمة الخدمات والثقة، متسائلة عن جدوى طرح إقامة ذهبية في بلد يعاني من أزمات في الكهرباء والمياه والطرقات والاستقرار، ومن فقدان الثقة بالمصارف بعد أزمة الودائع. وسألت كيف يمكن إقناع مستثمر أجنبي بوضع أمواله في بلد لم يُعد حقوق مواطنيه. أهمل X مشاركة, 4 هل تسمح بعرض المحتوى من X؟ تحتوي هذه الصفحة على محتوى من موقع X. موافقتكم مطلوبة قبل عرض أي مواد لأنها قد تتضمن ملفات ارتباط (كوكيز) وغيرها من الأدوات التقنية. قد تفضلون الاطلاع على سياسة ملفات الارتباط الخاصة بموقع X وسياسة الخصوصية قبل الموافقة. لعرض المحتوى، اختر "موافقة وإكمال" Accept and continue تحذير: بي بي سي غير مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية نهاية X مشاركة, 4 المحتوى غير متاح X اطلع على المزيد في بي بي سي ليست مسؤولة عن محتوى المواقع الخارجية.

Killing time playing pool at the West Rhyl youth club, friends Sienna, 19, and Jake, 26, are unanimous when asked what a tour of the north Wales seaside town should look like. “The first place I’d show anyone is ‘Crackhead Circle’,” Sienna says. The small public garden behind the town hall and a paved area by the closed home bargain store Wilko in the adjacent high street host several strung-out characters on a cold February afternoon. Police cars crawl through the area every 15 minutes or so as part of Project Renew, a year-long crackdown on gang activity and drugs. On the seafront, a row of Victorian hotels look out over the milky-green Irish Sea, but their glamour has long faded; the dilapidated buildings now serve as emergency accommodation for the council. Sienna waves at a group of people gathered on the steps of the Westminster hotel as she walks past. Her family moved around a lot before coming to Rhyl a few years ago. They lived at the hotel when they arrived.

Q&A What is the Against the tide series? Show Over the next year, the Against the Tide project from the Guardian’s Seascape team will be reporting on the lives of young people in coastal communities across England and Wales. Young people in many of England's coastal towns are disproportionately likely to face poverty, poor housing, lower educational attainment and employment opportunities than their peers in equivalent inland areas. In the most deprived coastal towns they can be left to struggle with crumbling and stripped-back public services and transport that limit their life choices. For the next 12 months, accompanied by the documentary photographer Polly Braden, we will travel up and down the country to port towns, seaside resorts and former fishing villages to ask 16- to 25-year-olds to tell us about their lives and how they feel about the places they live. By putting their voices at the front and centre of our reporting, we want to examine what kind of changes they need to build the futures they want for themselves. Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback. “It has been difficult to settle down here,” she says. “I don’t think it’s that dangerous, but you have to be careful by the bus station.” Rhyl West has topped deprivation tables in Wales for decades. Drugs and violence are significant problems in the once elegant holiday town; the ward has a crime rate of 197 for every 1,000 people – about 2.5 times the average for Wales. The violent crime rate is 88 for every 1,000, or more than double Wales’ average. View image in fullscreen Donna and Chris, both youth workers, talking to young people in the town centre about what opportunities exist in the resort The town’s young people, like so many others in coastal communities in England and Wales, leave school and often find themselves faced with few opportunities for work and little chance of finding somewhere affordable to live. “My mates who have jobs are all working part-time in shops or deliveries or tourism,” says Sienna. “Almost no one can afford to move out from their parents and get their own place. They can’t afford to leave either.” double quotation mark Our issue in Rhyl is getting people into work. Many young people lack the basics Melanie Evans, Working Denbighshire Sienna has a fiance in Northern Ireland but she does not have the money to see him very often. “We haven’t figured out how we can be together yet.” But there are tentative signs that the tide may finally be turning for Rhyl. Project Renew is working – in January, North Wales police said crime was down 14% on a year ago – and everyone the Guardian met agreed there is less drug use on the street. Years of construction work on the promenade finally finished last summer, the nearby Queen’s Market food hall, waterpark and cinema have all been recently revamped, and a neighbourhood board has been put together to decide how to spend millions allocated through the government’s Pride in Place funding. View image in fullscreen The Westminster hotel, where Sienna and her family lived for more than a year after moving to Rhyl. Several of the town’s old hotels now serve as temporary council accommodation Pride in Place, Labour’s answer to the Conservatives’ levelling up strategy, has awarded hundreds of places, many of them coastal, with £20m. The proviso is that local people, the MP, the council, businesses and community organisations must all work together on how best to spend it. Gill German, MP for Clwyd North, is keen that young people in Rhyl are involved in that process. “The youth service consulted 600 young people about what they need,” she says. “They [the young people] still don’t think the beach belongs to them – they think it’s for tourists – so we need to try to make sure they start feeling the benefits of living by the sea and those wellbeing factors [associated with that].” double quotation mark If you keep doing the same thing, you’ll keep getting the same results. We needed to do something different Melanie Evans, Working Denbighshire Researchers from University College London recently travelled up and down the English coast talking to local people for their Coastal Youth Life Chances project and concluded that one of the things that would make a difference to young people in seaside communities would be to include them in planning and decision-making. “We’ve managed to get more young people on Our Rhyl [the Pride in Place board],” says German. “Hopefully that will start connecting them to the growing opportunities [in Rhyl].” Rhyl is unusual in that it is youthful in comparison to most UK coastal towns. It is also an outlier in that the unemployment rate in Denbighshire is 4.8%, lower than the UK average of 5.2%, even though coastal areas tend to have more people out of work. “Our issue in Rhyl is getting people into work,” says Melanie Evans, of Working Denbighshire. “Many young people lack the basics, such as knowing how to talk to people in a workplace or an office, or how to dress. Those are skills we are teaching.” In 2017, Working Denbighshire consolidated more than a dozen funding streams from the Welsh government and Westminster into one pool, making it simpler to coordinate services and channel money to where it is needed most. View image in fullscreen Old photographs of Rhyl in its heyday, when it was a thriving resort for visitors from Merseyside The results are clear. In 2021, Project Barod was launched – Barod means “ready” in Welsh – offering one-to-one mentoring support in helping find work or training, workshops to help build confidence and skills, such as cooking classes and beach clean-ups, as well as classes in reading, writing and maths. When participants are ready, they can access subsidised work experience, and the project also supports people struggling to hold down a job, and those who want to retrain. double quotation mark It’s tough working with short-term funding … That lack of certainty makes it harder because young people can’t rely on us Jay McGuinness “Our thinking was: if you’re going to keep doing the same thing, you’re going to keep getting the same results,” says Evans. “We needed to do something different to break the cycle of poverty.” The number of people in education or training after support from Working Denbighshire in the first half of the 2025-26 financial year was 163, up 233% on the department’s target of 70, with 38% of those helped aged 16 to 24, by far the biggest demographic group. By his own admission, Luke, 19, did not enjoy school, and had no idea what he wanted to do when he left. After quitting a job he hated at a clothes shop, he was referred to Barod by the jobcentre. Over the past year the programme has helped him study for a roofing qualification and find work as an apprentice. View image in fullscreen Florence and another trainee flanking Steve Baxendale.

She says it’s a highlight of her week and is now thinking of training to becoming a youth or social worker “Making something or learning something new gives me a sense of accomplishment, and it’s sometimes easier to tackle the things I need to do when I feel I’ve already done something right.” For all of Rhyl’s recent successes, some teenagers and young people are still falling through the cracks. Jay McGuinness, a social worker who trains Sienna and Jake at the Rhyl Youth Boxing Club, says one part of the job is walking around the town centre in the early evening and getting to know the young people hanging out there. The aim is to build enough trust that they might then engage with the youth centre. “We’re a non-profit, we’re not run by the council, and it’s real
