DWN Publisher Notes For 5/13/26

Greetings from Digital Wealth News™

Summer is somehow a month away, and June — yes, half the year — is already staring us down. Out here in Bozeman we’ll take any excuse to pretend warmth is coming, even if the flowers are still in witness protection.

Take a look at the gorgeous woman in the picture — DWN Founder and Publisher Cindy Taylor — who “retired” exactly three months ago today. Retired is in quotes because she still signs off on everything we publish. Trust me, she’s over my shoulder 24/7.

Last night she asked what all the UFO fuss was about. “The Lead” touches on it this week, but the real answer is simple: those cute little lights in the sky are just DWN’s field reporters chasing the most relevant stories. Cindy insisted I remind you we call it Universal Flight Operations around here.

This week’s Lead also hits the new virus, the maybe‑cease‑fire, and even NBA referees. We’ve got the top five VC deals, Chris Robbins on Advisor Tech, the latest in Digital Assets and Tokenization, and a tight Week in Digital Wealth to keep you current.

So tonight, if you see those zippy glowing orbs overhead, give them a wave. They’re our guys.

And as always — thank you for reading and for sticking with us.

Cindy asks that you: READ ON.
