OPPO Celebrates SG60 with Local Communities, Inspiring Singaporeans to Reconnect Through Creativity and Technology
OPPO Lumo
As a flagship component of the campaign and part of the OPPO LUMO Photography Awards 2025, OPPO has proudly invited local photography community to capture the nation's unique spirit under the theme 'Super Every Singapore Moment.' This initiative invites Singaporeans to capture and celebrate the spirit of the nation through the lens of their smartphones.
A social video was later created to celebrate SG60, highlighting how camera technology can empower creative expression and bridge connections with local creative communities. Featuring local celebrity Romeo Tan, the video highlights the works of 20 photography enthusiasts whose images reflect everyday beauty, diversity, and spirit of Singapore. More than just a tribute, the video serves as a visual letter to the nation, crafted through the collective lens of local talent. These powerful visuals not only demonstrate the professional-grade imaging capabilities of OPPO smartphones but also show the role of technology in enabling authentic storytelling. The photos document authentic, heartfelt moments that reflect everyday life in Singapore, from bustling coffee shops and quiet HDB corners to national landmarks and cultural celebrations.
Singaporeans are still encouraged participate in the OPPO LUMO Photography Awards 2025 and submit their entries from now until October 15, 2025, via the official contest platform. Winners can also stand a chance to win up to USD$5,000, and have their work exhibited globally.
Simultaneously, OPPO has partnered with Nanyang Technological University (NTU) veNTUre programme to launch the youth-driven 'OPPO Creative Studio,' jointly organised with NTU's Career & Attachment Office. This initiative equips students with industry insights, strategic marketing guidance, and potential internship opportunities while challenging them with a core question: 'What does SG60 mean to you?' More than just a problem statement, this challenge taps into a deeper campaign focus, inspiring the younger generation to feel more connected to their country using OPPO smartphones.
In today's networked world, young people in Singapore are constantly surrounded by global content. While this brings inspiration, it can also dilute local connections and cultural roots. OPPO Singapore leverages SG60 as an opportunity for students to pause and reflect, encouraging the younger generation to reconnect with their roots, reignite a sense of national pride, and rediscover the stories, voices, and visuals that resonate as home.
Students are encouraged to explore and express their reflections on nationhood using the newly launched OPPO Reno14 Pro. With OPPO's next-generation AI imaging engine, students capture Singapore's vibrant cityscape and everyday moments, sharing diverse interpretations of the nation's 60th birthday. As part of the creative campaign, students have created a dedicated Instagram account, @FromThenToNowSG60, to foster social interaction and community engagement. All photos have been uploaded to this account, encouraging more Singaporeans to join in by capturing and sharing their own moments to reflect the old and new of Singapore. This collective digital gallery invites the public to reflect, engage, and celebrate SG60 through the eyes of Singapore's next generation.
Through both the local photo contest and the OPPO x NTU veNTUre collaboration, the SG60 campaign reflects OPPO's long-standing commitment to empowering local communities through technology, creativity, and culture. This aligns with OPPO's brand mission to inspire people to 'Make your moment' by capturing meaningful experiences with the help of innovative technology.
'SG60 marks a significant milestone in Singapore's history and is one of the nation's most anticipated celebrations. In honour of this occasion, OPPO is proud to collaborate with local photography enthusiasts and emerging young talents to co-create meaningful content that celebrates the spirit of the nation. By encouraging individuals to capture the beauty around them, OPPO reaffirms its commitment to empowering Singaporeans with a platform to express their creativity and commemorate this momentous day.' Said Dylan Yu, Marketing Director of OPPO Singapore.
Looking ahead, OPPO will continue to localise marketing efforts, support community-led storytelling, and invest in technological innovation to engage Singaporean consumers more deeply. As Singapore reflects on 60 years of nation-building, OPPO's SG60 campaign marks a new chapter where the stories of tomorrow are written by the voices of today.

Crypto market sees $1B getting 'rekt' as prices pull back from highs
Crypto market sees $1B getting 'rekt' as prices pull back from highs originally appeared on TheStreet. The crypto market is reeling after a sharp pullback wiped out over $1.05 billion in leveraged positions in the past 24 hours. According to Coinglass data, 219,682 traders were liquidated, with longs bearing the brunt — accounting for more than $778 million of the total. The largest single liquidation was a $10 million BTC-USD position on Bybit. Bybit led in total liquidations with $447 million, followed by Binance with $264 million and OKX with $126 million. Bitcoin (BTC) is now trading at $118,718, down 1.5% in the past 24 hours after recently hitting record highs above $124,000. Its market cap sits at $2.36 trillion. Ethereum (ETH) fell 3.4% to $4,547, while XRP slipped 5.2% to $3.11. Other major altcoins also saw losses, with Solana (SOL) down 4.2% to $193.60 and BNB down 2.3% to $833.84. The sell-off follows days of euphoric gains that pushed Bitcoin past Google in market capitalization earlier this week. Jessy Gilger, CFP, Senior Advisor at Sound Advisory (the financial planning and investment arm of Unchained), says the latest move fits squarely within Bitcoin's historical growth pattern, but with one key difference that could make this cycle even stronger: 'Every Bitcoin cycle has followed the same pattern: consolidation, expansion, peak, and retrace, with each peak rising materially above the last. This cycle is tracking closely to that model. But with this year's supply issuance cut in half and institutional demand stronger than ever, the runway for record growth is wide open." Ethereum is riding the same bullish wave. As ETH approaches an all-time high, Thomas Perfumo, Global Economist at Kraken, notes: "ETH has surged to its first new all-time high since 2021, lifting Bitcoin and other major altcoins alike. The rally marks ETH's first sustained run of outperformance in years, fueled by aggressive institutional inflows." He added: "Corporate treasuries and spot ETH ETFs now control more than 8% of the circulating supply—almost double their stake from just two months ago—creating a supply squeeze that has amplified the latest move higher. Leading the charge is Bitmine, now ETH's largest single holder, which recently filed to expand its at-the-market equity offering by $20 billion, arming it with additional dry powder to accelerate accumulation."

The TELFAR "Plastic Bag" Couldn't Be More TELFAR
TELFARhas unveiled the latest addition to its growing handbag repertoire: the TELFAR Plastic Bag. The new silhouette is entirely unique from the classic 'TELFAR Shopping Bag', yet it's in no way unfamiliar. The bag, inspired by single-use plastic bags commonly found in bodegas and liquor stores in NYC, embodies TELFAR's democratic ethos. Being 'for everybody' has been a part of the brand's DNA since its inception in 2004 in Brooklyn by Telfar Clemens. Available in eleven nostalgic New York TELFAR prints and 2 sizes, the design is an expressive departure from the relatively minimal Shopping Bag. The double-lined waterproof exterior boasts a plastic-like sheen, and ruched elastic handles add a TELFAR design touch. Two deep side pockets inside are large enough to fit a water bottle and are supplemented with a zip pocket, slit pocket, and hidden stash pocket. The regular, big enough to hold a 13-inch laptop, is priced at $148 USD, while the carry-on-sized jumbo is $195 USD. The brand's 'for everybody' mantra has also informed its subversive slant, manifesting in playful anti-fashion stunts and unconventional approaches to distribution that prioritize access to all. In June, TELFAR hosted its20th anniversary runwayshow on a SoHo side street, holding an open casting call for the presentation just weeks before. The Plastic Bag and a capsule of matching tees will be released exclusively on the TELFARwebstoreon August 15 and in-store at 408 Broadway, New York City, next week.
