Is this really different this time? One dominant question is rattling around in my head. This latter point is why I’m particularly fascinated about the hype around RealT and its ability to democratize real estate investment. I've seen this movie before. I lived this movie before. And believe me, the...
Let’s face it, the XRP Ledger (XRPL) has always seemed like the quiet giant. Now millions upon millions of XRP just sit dormant, doing nothing at all. It’s analogous to burying gold in your backyard and losing all memory of where it is. Why is that? For too long the...
Picture yourself next to a warm turf fire, regaled by wonderful stories of the Emerald Isle. Of stories where a handshake was a holy commitment, and a man’s word, their good name, was their most treasured wealth. Now, flash forward to 2024. We’re all being told that these digital IDs...
Singapore. The Lion City. An inhospitable territory, this small island state that’s a world leader on many fronts. While the rest of the world grapples with cumbersome bureaucracy and legacy systems, Singapore is setting the pace. They are making Singapore into a Smart Nation, a digital utopia where technology becomes...
The XRPL is fast, cheap, and…underutilized. Let’s face it, the DeFi space on XRPL is a bit of a ghost town compared to Ethereum or Solana. That's not a bad thing. It's an opportunity. Hundreds of millions of XRP sit idle which are just HODLing, waiting to be otherwise productive....

Are we inevitably facing another hype cycle or is there tangible, valuable work born out of the flames? I'm seeing some low-to-mid-cap...
DeFi is supposed to be the future of finance, a wild west of opportunity where anyone with an internet connection can participate. Let’s face it, it’s been stifled. Held back by a simple, yet critical flaw: unreliable data. Garbage in, garbage out, right? So you can go off and build...
Think of a short, crafty leprechaun besting a big, dumb giant who has all the treasure. And that’s kind of the vibe of what we are seeing with Pyth Network. It's a David taking on Goliath. Rather than armed with a slingshot, they are armed with the power of decentralized...
You know that feeling of being slightly beyond the velvet rope. Then suddenly you see the dancing, pumping, energetic colors of the new party and you can feel the thrill of opportunity. The bouncer—here personified by the high cost and complex language—won’t let you in. That’s what DeFi is like...
