DWN Publisher Notes For 5/20/26

Greetings from Digital Wealth News™

Memorial Day is sneaking up this weekend — a built‑in pause button and a good moment to reflect on the heroes who served and gave their lives so the rest of us can enjoy something as simple as a peaceful long weekend. A little gratitude goes a long way.

Readers keep asking why Cindy’s picture is still up if she has “retired” from DWN. So I ask them: when you open DWN in the morning, do you really want to see my picture? The vote is a unanimous NO. Besides, Cindy still runs the place. Since moving into her new “retirement community,” she somehow has even more time to guide my thinking (as always) and keep DWN’s standards high. Yes, we chat often, and no one can prove we don’t. Her picture stays — cue one Cindy‑style eyebrow raise.

This week, The Lead digs into why the UFOs and their pilots are buzzing around, what’s going on with the new virus, and what the future looks like for LeBron James. And yes — the war.

Chris Robbins, DWN’s brilliant Editor in Chief, shines a stadium‑grade spotlight on wealth management and everything happening in that universe. Plus the usual: fresh news and sharp insights across venture capital, digital wealth, and digital assets. We’ve got you covered.

Cindy constantly reminds me to thank our readers for sticking with us as we make a few tweaks and improvements around DWN. So… THANK YOU. Truly.

As we say around here: READ ON.
