OPEC today has more members yet is less powerful than in 1973 or 1979.
A big reason is greater oil production in non OPEC countries such as USA.
China tried to ban bitcoin mining ⛏️ in 2021 but miners relocated elsewhere.
A similar attempt to ban mining in USA with a 30 percent energy tax proposal.
The US ramping up production is the other reason cartels tend to fail: an inability to prevent outside competition.
