In this one-taker, we discuss the Philippines while I part-take in the Filipino tradition of Tagay. A tradition where a drink is shared, that I mess up at some point. We also joked around about some differences between different continents.
Being in the Philippines was really lovely and great. The reason I visited was a depressing story about the drug war - but in between, I had a blast getting to know the Philippines a little, its rich history and its great diversity of people.

💗 Look into DefiChain
DefiChain is an open-source DeFi project tied to Bitcoin, which makes it unique. Its network and coin $DFI allows you to build a diversified investment portfolio (dTSLA, dUSD, dBTC, etc) while gaining (ridiculous) interests on that investment, especially now that we're still early.
Different private applications are build on top of DefiChain, like:
Cake DeFi - a user-friendly platform for DefiChain
cakedefi.com/?ref=266633
DFX Swiss - a full-service app that provides higher returns but requires a bit more effort.
https://dfx.swiss/app?code=005-255
Both projects are legit, use KYC, and are subject to local laws.
