@gazza_jenks @TheBlockCo @lawmaster @XBT002 @ForesightVen That's a win for The Block!

Today I start the next chapter of my career! I am incredibly excited to join @TheBlockCo as Head of Multimedia. For the past 14 years, I've worked as a multimedia journalist and broadcaster. I believe in journalistic integrity and ethics. When I spoke to @lawmaster , @XBT002 @Timccopeland earlier this year, I could really feel that was a core part of the DNA of the company. I also got the feeling that The Block was a place I could continue to learn AND help grow from a multimedia perspective. So I decided to go for it! And that is the task ahead of me. I believe The Block is one of the bastions of quality journalism in the cryptocurrency space. Hopefully, I can do my part to solidify that position. If you want to reach out about events, news, leads, content ideas. Drop me an email - gjenkinson@theblock.co. We are going to be doing A LOT across the board from a multimedia perspective. But today is day one, and we have to learn to walk before we can run.

@iKEOrizu @lavavc_ @microtraction @LiskDAO @TheBatchery Congratulations @iKEOrizu & the entire @jamitHQ team! We can't wait to see where the journey goes 🚀

Excited to share that we’ve raised $500K to build Jamit. But the real story started long before that. I’ve spent years in media and tech watching creators build audiences they didn’t own. Talented storytellers. Brilliant voices. Amazing stories. But: - Revenue has been split unfairly for decades - Distribution controlled by platforms - Culture filtered through algorithms And the biggest problem? Millions of stories never get told or reach their rightful audiences. So we built Jamit. An AI-powered platform where creators can create, publish, monetize, and actually own their narrative. - No gatekeepers. - No censorship walls. - No begging for distribution. Just your imagination. Your voice, Your story and you will be able to bring it to life today with Jamit. We are so proud to be backed by @lavavc_ , @CV_Labs , @microtraction , @LiskDAO , @TheBatchery , and angels who believe the future of storytelling is creator-owned. This is personal to me, as I have spent my whole adulthood building to help creators get their deserved share. Because the world doesn’t need more content. It needs more voices and those imaginations brought to life Let’s bring your story to life. - Ike
