Charles Hoskinson is a celebrity in the crypto world. He has been live streaming on YouTube for years now and I have been learning a lot from watching all his videos over the past few months.
If you want to learn about the crypto world and specifically about Cardano and the progress on their platform, then take a look at his YouTube channel.
I have recently added Adsense to Crenk.
I wondered how long it takes before the ad code starts to show correctly on your site once it has been added.
Answer = random.
If your using the same Google account or the same IP address as you did when you inserted the code then Google won’t show you an ads and you will see a big white blank space.
However, if you get in touch with a friend and get them to test the site for you then they should be able to generally see the ads. It normally takes a few hours after the ad has been inserted, but sometimes it can be faster.
Creators are always looking for great music – that’s why we created Synchedin! But Synchedin also allows the musicians to finally get a strong revenue share from a licensing service!
The music is fully controlled by Synchedin and is completely safe to use across social media, etc, globally.
For only $4.99 per monthly – creators now have an amazing choice of great tracks and the catalogue is growing daily.
Today I had to say goodbye to our last goat Henry.
Henry had an amazing life – open fields and lived to the ripe old age of 14 (when most goats of his breed only live to 11 on average).
There are many situations in life that make you think more about life and how much you really do need to take advantage of every day!
Thank you Henry for being an amazing friend over the years. Rest in peace my friend.
I have just started watching the Challenge Cup Rugby League final in the UK. Its a strong game between St Helens and Castleford so far!
However, Im wondering why in Rugby League now – when anyone drops the ball forwards or backwards the referee calls it a knock on (or knock forwards)?
It’s like the rules of the game have been forgotten.
Wise is one of my favourite companies and has been for a long time.
Today Wise goes public on the London Stock Market – under the ticker – WISE.
They have been a leader in the P2P money transfer space forever, but I think they have a huge number of opportunities in adjacent markets to enter.
Today they will go public for around $7 billion USD.
I can easily see this company being worth $70 billion within 3-5 years.
Yes.
Monday.com has just gone public and now anyone can buy shares in the productivity software giant.
Stock Ticket: MNDY
For analysis and information please take a look at Yahoo Finance.

Naomi Osaka has officially withdrawn from the French Open 2021.
Naomi stated at the beginning of the tournament that she wasn’t going to do after match press conferences because they affected her mental health.
Since that time she has faced a lot of questions (outside of the press conferences).
The vast majority of comments have been negative and focused around the fact that those press conferences are required and part of the job. The French Open then came out and gave Naomi a fine of $15,000 USD after her first round win because she didn’t attend the press conference. Later they also stated that if she continued in this way she would be forfeited out of the tournament and then potentially banned from future tournaments. Naomi also receive no support from any of her fellow players.
Now I think Naomi has taken the steps she probably should have done at the beginning of the tournament and withdraw. This will now give her time to see the correct help and then come back to tennis even stronger!
On Saturday I sat down like millions of people here in the UK to watch the FA Cup final.
Leicester vs Chelsea
Chelsea came into the game as the strong favourites. However, after an amazing goal by Leicester midfielder Youri Tielemans the foxes took away the FA Cup for the first time in their history.
However, the most amazing thing about the game was the celebrations between the Team, the Manager and the Owners. When we now live in a world where premier league football clubs are owned by billionairres its very rare to see the owners at the games – let alone loved by the fans, the manager and the team! Leicester and their owners (King Power) are loved by all, because unlike nearly every other owner of a premier league football team – they ACTUALLY CARE about the Club, Fans and Community in which their club stands.
Its a refreshing change.
Well done Leicester football club – Team, Manager, and Owners!
Stripe has just launched a new invoicing tool to help its customers create invoices faster and more efficiently. However, it misses the point!
Stripe has offered invoicing options for some time within its standard platform, but now they have decided to segment it out and try to charge for something that was previously for Free (without telling anyone).
Additionally, the invoicing product only seems to be tailored to its current customer base, which is very tech / startup / businesses that require a developer heavy!
Oh… and I forgot to mention that they want to take 0.5% of your entire invoicing price just to provide you with super basic tech you really should be getting for Free.
No wonder this is getting heavily downvoted on ProductHunt!
Better luck next time Stripe. This could have been good, but missed the mark.
Shutterstock has over 350 million photos and vectors at the beginning of 2021 – with approximately 10 million videos.
Great collection, but very expensive for the average creator. They have tried to focus on the top end of the business market.
No.

Dogecoin is crashing!
Dogecoin is down 15% in just the last 24 hours.
Elon Musk was on SNL last night in the US and it has lead to a giant crash in Dogecoin immediately as the credits rolled on the show.
I came across this about a year ago and it is amazing! I find this mix to be amazing to run in the background when I’m trying to get stuff done.
I came across this image a while back from Derek Sivers (who started CDbaby). Its an old image, but I think it explain a lot.
A few people have mentioned to me recently that they have new business ideas, but they are scared to tell too many people as they think their idea could be copied. I replied to them stating that they shouldn’t be worrying about the idea – and everything comes down to execution!
DOGEcoin is a meme coin with no value at all. It seems like the Redditors on Wall Street Bets are doing a pump and dump, but its been just over a week now and dump hasn’t really happened.
It seems like the Buy and Hold game is on.
Loving the fact that this joke coin now has a market cap of $32 billion.
This is my new favourite track at the moment. I dont know why exactly…. but it just helps me to think.
Lane 8 – Don’t Let Me Go!
Is it just me or do VCs spend more time tweeting these days compared to actual research in the markets they are going to invest in?
MKBHD unboxes and then shows off the Apple Airtags and how they work.
It seems like this is a nice addition for Apple, but it is just a direct ripoff of Tile. Its not exactly the type of innovation you expected from Apple in the Steve Jobs era.
