Hello Cowrium Enthusiast, I wanted to address a few questions that have come up recently. Regarding Cowrium: We are currently updating our portal and have taken full control and ownership of the .com domain. As a result, we are transitioning our primary domain from cowrium.net to cowrium.com. This process will take some time, so we will maintain both domains for now, with all activities on .net being redirected to .com. To access your dashboard, please visit cowrium.com and click on "Login," or go directly to dashboard.cowrium.com. We are working on the platform update and will keep you informed once it's complete. For those excited about our takeover of #cointagion: We share your enthusiasm! We have tidied up all necessary, but we still have a final tripartite financial commitment to our partners. This will determine how quickly the exchange can fully operate under our leadership. For our Nigerian community: We have great news! While the exchange is registered in the Caribbean Islands, we can now also register it in Nigeria as its African Regional Hub. Recently, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Nigeria began the official registration of cryptocurrency exchanges and custodians. This is a significant victory and fantastic news for everyone in Nigeria. Additionally: We have fully implemented the minting capabilities of Cowrium on Xclusive Items. Upon the re-launch of Xclusive Items, expected very soon, starting with Nigeria, shoppers will be able to earn Cowrium (CWR) as they shop. We are also working on implementing it as a means of payment, which should be possible in the new year. Stay tuned for more exciting updates. Thank you for your patience and continuous support. Yours in service, Emmanuel Haastrup (Ceah) Founder / Chief Conductor #Itakun | #Cowrium | #XclusiveItems

The Had I Known Clause: Sacrifice and the Future Once, a wise man declared that the future belongs only to those who can foresee it and are willing to sacrifice present pleasures to attain it. I love reading stories about people I admire and those I don’t. The former teaches me what to do and how to do it, while the latter shows me what to avoid and how not to do things. Today, I’ll share a story about Ronald Wayne, one of Apple’s co-founders, whose choices shaped his destiny. In 1976, Ronald Wayne joined forces with Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak to create Apple Computers (now Apple Inc.). Wayne contributed significantly—he designed the first Apple logo, drafted the original partnership agreement, and even wrote the Apple I Operations Manual. Remarkably, he held a 10% share in the company. However, Wayne faced a pivotal decision: he sold his 10% stake back to Jobs and Wozniak for $800, just 12 days after Apple's official registration. A year later, he accepted an additional $1,500 to forfeit any future claims against the company. His reason? The financial demands were too much for him at the time. Fast forward to today: Apple has become the first trillion-dollar company. If Wayne had held onto his 10% share, he would be worth over $100 billion—the richest or second-richest person globally. Instead, he received a mere $9,498 in 2017 for his initial investment. Ronald Wayne's story teaches us that lasting value requires sacrifice. Greatness doesn't emerge from convenience; it begins with today's sacrifices. Whether it's living in a modest apartment to own an estate or riding a tricycle to pave the way for a Rolls Royce, the path to the future demands commitment. Wayne's decision still echoes—a painful reminder of missed opportunities. Imagine if he had persisted. Today, he's worth around $300,000, while the agreement he drafted sells for millions. His story underscores the importance of foresight and determination. So, my counsel to you: - **Invest** where you see a future. - **Sacrifice** when necessary. - **Endure** hardships for lasting rewards. - **Persist** in your pursuit of greatness. Remember the "Had I Known Clause." The future belongs to those who foresee it and give their all to reach it. And always keep in mind: **"Greatness in life is not a product of convenience—it takes sacrifice."** For more about Ronald Wayne, you can explore [this Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Wayne).
