🟧 Unchained has released two reports that are must-reads!

🟧 CrowdHealth posted a summary of all of the numerous medical events they have helped members handle.

CrowdHealth all en route to saving members millions of dollars on healthcare expenses.

🟧 Fountain CEO Oscar Merry was on the What Bitcoin Did Podcast and discussed the formulaic destruction of creativity, discovery, value-signal, & incentives, defeating algorithm malaise with value, and hyperbitcoinization & the ultimate value vision!

🟧 Azteco was selected from over 13,000 projects to receive a Webby Honoree Award for Responsible Innovation! The President of the Webby Awards, Claire Graves, said: “Honorees like Azteco are setting the standard for innovation and creativity on the internet.”

🟧 Relai announced they have been following MicroStrategy’s strategy by adding Bitcoin to the company balance sheet. Relai has been stacking Bitcoin in this way since January 2024!
