Seventy-five years. Though longstanding, the Kashmir conflict has recently intensified in response to globalization’s rapid influx. It’s a heart wrenching quagmire rife with ethnic conflict, political posturing, and unabated human misery. Decades of diplomatic initiatives, military posturing and international peacekeeping missions have produced at best a stalemate. What if the...
From the very name, we picture snow-covered peaks, fertile valleys, and a deeply imbedded culture. Yet it conjures a legacy of struggle, oppression, division, and blanked-out voices. These landmark changes highlight how for decades, Kashmir had been thrown about as a political football. India, Pakistan, and China all engage in...
Picture this reality where you wake up one morning, check your Blockfolio, and discover a balance of exactly zero. Gone. Vanished. All because of a compromised password. Sounds like a nightmare, right? The nightmare has become reality for many crypto users. This change is largely in response to the alarming...
Sixteen billion. Let that number sink in. That’s because sixteen billion usernames and passwords are waiting in the deep web.

The art world, sheesh, has always been like a velvet-rope night club, no? Galleries playing bouncers, determining who gets to enter the hallowed space, and more crucially, who’s going to get that check cut. Crypto art NFTs exploded onto the scene like a killer remix, threatening to overtake and disrupt...
We've all seen the headlines: JPEGs selling for millions. It’s tempting to write off NFTs as short-lived phase, the new playground of the ultra-wealthy. To do so is to completely miss the forest for the trees. NFTs aren't just about digital art. They’re not just about digital ownership, though that’s...
Let's be real. The metaverse hype train derailed. You've probably heard the news: Meta's bleeding money, VR adoption isn't skyrocketing, and even Deadpool can't save you from motion sickness (thanks, Ailsa Chang for bravely sharing that!). Before we all start penning VR’s obituary, hold on a sec. As someone who’s...
Remember the hype? The once unspecified glorious promise of a digital future where we’d all be prospering, living our best lives as legless avatars?
