The Same Old Script.
As the smoke clears from the Vatican's Sistine Chapel, a familiar narrative unfolds. Another papal conclave, another overlooked opportunity for diversity. African and Asian candidates, representing the vibrant heart of global Catholicism, are once again relegated to the shadows.

A Church Out of Touch?
The numbers are stark: Asia, Africa, and Latin America account for over 70% of the world's Catholic population. Yet, the men who lead the Church remain overwhelmingly European. Is this a reflection of the Church's values, or a relic of a bygone era?

Time for a New Chapter.

HODL - or maybe SPENDL?

HODLing is the classic crypto mantra.

But what’s the plan — HODL forever? Pass it on to your family?
At what point is it okay to take profits?

Or the idea is to wait until you finally can spend your sats conveniently at a local coffee shop or while you travel?

Is there ever a “right time” to sell or spend? Or is HODLing is the holy grail and the ultimate purpose?

I do wonder about it when I see all the “HODL” and diamond hands posts here on LinkedIn, but especially on X, when I occasionally have a look there 🤔

Congo, mai 2025 . Juste un serpent. Juste un Phyton. Eh bien, ils l'ont attrapé la veille et je suppose qu'il sera bientôt mangé. Tous les agriculteurs qui l'ont vu, étaient extrêmement effrayés. #travelwithbenedikt #snake #phyton #farmers #farm #farmfood #congo #acrossafrica #transafrica #photographe #photographie #photojournaliste #aventure #benediktloebell
