New York, United States, 31st Jan 2026 — As Bitcoin adoption continues to expand worldwide, a growing number of users are moving away from custodial platforms and centralised services in favour of self-sovereign ownership, where individuals retain full control over their private keys and digital assets. This shift reflects rising awareness of platform risk, regulatory uncertainty, and data privacy, accelerating demand for user-controlled Bitcoin solutions.

Bitamp is aligning with this global trend by offering a non-custodial, open-source, browser-based Bitcoin wallet designed to support true user ownership. Instead of relying on account-based systems or storing credentials on external servers, Bitamp enables individuals to create and manage Bitcoin wallets directly within their own browsers, ensuring that private keys remain under the user’s sole control.

Self-sovereign Bitcoin represents a fundamental change in how digital assets are held and protected. By removing third-party custody, users reduce counterparty exposure and maintain long-term authority over their funds. This model supports Bitcoin’s core principles of decentralisation and financial independence, strengthening user resilience in an increasingly platform-driven digital economy.

Bitamp’s browser-native architecture functions as a client-side bitcoin wallet, ensuring that sensitive information, including private keys and recovery phrases, remains on the user’s device. This design supports a privacy-first approach to Bitcoin access while reducing dependence on centralised infrastructure. Users are not required to share personal data, creating a clearer separation between identity and financial activity.

As global demand for privacy-first, user-controlled financial tools continues to grow, Bitamp is positioned to support individuals seeking greater independence in how they hold and manage Bitcoin. By aligning with this shift toward self-sovereign ownership, Bitamp contributes to a future where users can interact with Bitcoin on their own terms, with full control, transparency, and reduced reliance on intermediaries.

About Bitamp
Bitamp is a non-custodial, open-source, browser-based Bitcoin wallet designed to support self-sovereign Bitcoin ownership. The platform enables users to generate and manage Bitcoin wallets directly within their browser, ensuring that private keys remain under the user’s control at all times.

Florida, US, 30th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Most students don’t spend the start of summer walking across northern Spain. Gabriel Malkin did. In June 2025, the Florida high school graduate completed a 120-mile stretch of the Camino de Santiago, one of the world’s oldest pilgrimage routes. It wasn’t a last-minute idea. It was a goal he had planned for, trained for, and quietly worked toward for months.

This wasn’t about adventure or social media. For Gabriel, it was about setting a physical goal and showing up for it every day.

“I didn’t want to wing it,” he said. “It was important to take it seriously.”

Gabriel’s prep started long before his flight to Europe. He built up mileage slowly, starting with short daily walks in South Florida. As the months went on, he added distance, tested gear, and paid attention to recovery. Blisters, sore muscles, and weather were all part of the process. So was building patience.

“The Camino isn’t just hard because it’s long,” Gabriel said. “It’s hard because you have to get up and do it again every day. Even when you’re tired. Even when nothing hurts and you feel fine—you still have to walk.”

The daily rhythm became its own challenge. Mornings often started before sunrise, with quiet stretches of trail through farmland, hills, and towns. Gabriel carried a small pack with essentials. Water, snacks, extra socks. No Wi-Fi. No schedule beyond the day’s distance. Just a clear goal and a few hours of steady effort.

That focus and consistency mirrors how Gabriel approaches most things. Whether he’s in class, on the tennis court, or working on saxophone tone, he tends to favor structure and repetition over shortcuts. It’s not about perfection. It’s about showing up, improving slowly, and staying with it.

“I’ve never been the fastest or the strongest at anything,” he said. “But I like knowing I’m getting better, even if it’s slow.”

Gabriel grew up in South Florida and attended Virginia Shuman Young Elementary, Pine Crest in Fort Lauderdale, and NSU University School in Davie. He played tennis, baseball, and football through different stages of school. He also spent time hiking local trails and practicing saxophone, two interests he says helped him train for the Camino more than people might expect.

“Hiking helped with endurance, obviously,” he said. “But playing music teaches you a lot about repetition and listening to your body. You learn when to push and when to pause.”

For Gabriel, the Camino wasn’t a performance or a competition. It was a quiet personal test. He kept notes during the walk, not for a blog, but to track how each day felt. When he crossed the finish line in Santiago, there was no big moment. Just a quiet sense of completion.

Now back home, Gabriel hasn’t stopped walking. He’s back to local trails, early mornings, and training logs. He’s also thinking about what comes next—college, travel, more endurance goals—but isn’t rushing anything.

“There’s no rush,” he said. “The Camino reminded me that showing up every day matters more than trying to get somewhere fast.”

Gabriel Malkin Florida continues to build habits rooted in preparation, consistency, and follow-through. Whether through athletics, academics, or music, his focus remains steady: stay curious, stay active, and finish what you start.

• Jon DiPietra, a New York–based real estate valuation executive, explains why common beliefs about space and value often miss the mark.

New York, US, 30th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, New York City is full of opinions about real estate. Many of them are repeated so often they start to feel true. But according to Jon DiPietra, decades of hands-on valuation work tell a different story.

“You learn things you cannot see in a report,” DiPietra says. “That’s where most of these myths fall apart.”

Below are five common myths that mislead everyday people across dense urban markets, why they persist, and what actually matters instead.

Myth 1: Bigger Space Always Means Better Value

Why people believe it:
Square footage is easy to compare. Listings highlight size first, so people assume more space equals more value.

The reality:
In dense cities, efficiency matters more than size. Studies show poorly used space can reduce productivity by up to 30 percent, even when square footage increases.

As DiPietra puts it, “The goal is not to produce the highest number. The goal is to produce something that makes sense in the real world.”

Try this today:
Identify one underused area in your home or office and repurpose it for a single clear function.

Myth 2: National Data Tells You Everything You Need to Know

Why people believe it:
Online tools and national reports feel authoritative and precise.

The reality:
Real estate is hyper-local. In New York, conditions can change block by block. National averages often lag reality by months.

“Real estate is ultimately driven by people, not formulas,” DiPietra says.

Try this today:
Walk your block at different times of day. Notice noise, foot traffic, and how spaces are actually used.

Myth 3: If a Space Worked Before, It Should Still Work Now

Why people believe it:
People resist change and assume layouts age well.

The reality:
How we live and work has shifted fast. Surveys show nearly 60 percent of people say their space no longer supports how they work today.

“Clear thinking matters more than being busy,” DiPietra notes.

Try this today:
Ask one simple question: What do I actually do here every day? Adjust one thing to support that reality.

Myth 4: More Information Leads to Better Decisions

Why people believe it:
Data feels safe. More feels smarter.

The reality:
Too much information can slow decisions and increase stress. Research links information overload to poorer judgment.

DiPietra says, “More data does not always lead to better decisions.”

Try this today:
Limit yourself to three criteria when evaluating a space or decision. Ignore the rest.

Myth 5: You Need a Major Renovation to Fix a Space

Why people believe it:
Media and social platforms spotlight dramatic transformations.

The reality:
Small changes often have outsized impact. Lighting, noise reduction, and decluttering consistently rank among the highest-return improvements.

“Sometimes the simplest changes create the most lasting value,” DiPietra says.

Try this today:
Improve lighting where you spend the most time. It is one of the fastest ways to change how a space feels.

If You Only Remember One Thing

Spaces influence behavior more than most people realize. When a space creates friction, it is often a design problem, not a personal one.

Understanding how space actually functions is more valuable than following assumptions or averages.

Call to Action
Share this myth list with someone who lives or works in a dense city. Pick one practical tip above and try it today. Small changes, applied intentionally, add up.

About Jon DiPietra
Jon DiPietra is a New York–based commercial real estate valuation executive and cofounder of H&T Appraisal, the valuation group of Horvath & Tremblay. With more than 20 years of experience, he has worked across residential, commercial, mixed-use, and special-use properties, focusing on how real people actually use space.

San Diego, California, 30th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Roger Haenke has spent his career at the intersection of healthcare and faith. As a registered nurse and ordained priest, his work has placed him in moments where people are vulnerable, uncertain, and often searching for support. Whether in hospitals, churches, clinics, or classrooms, Roger Haenke has built a reputation for being present, steady, and quietly dependable.

Roger Haenke began his career in parish ministry after completing his theological education and ordination. He served churches across North Dakota, offering pastoral care, teaching, and leadership. Much of his early work focused on being there for others during personal transitions—illness, loss, change, and growth. These experiences helped shape how Roger Haenke would later approach leadership in every other part of his life.

After leaving active ministry, Roger Haenke returned to school and earned a nursing degree. He started at the bedside and quickly moved into leadership roles. His healthcare career took him through specialty clinics, hospital departments, and community-based health systems. He managed staff, trained nurses, developed new services, and helped improve patient care across several states. At every step, Roger Haenke kept his focus on people and the systems that support them.

The connection between healthcare and ministry was always clear to Roger Haenke. He saw how much both fields depend on trust, communication, and the ability to remain calm when things are hard. He brought this understanding into every room he entered—whether leading a care team, sitting with a patient, or offering support to staff under pressure.

Later, Roger Haenke joined the faculty at San Diego State University. He taught nursing leadership, financial management, and professional development. His students learned not only the structure of healthcare systems, but also how to show up for others with clarity and respect. Roger Haenke’s teaching reflected what he had lived: strong systems matter, but presence and consistency matter just as much.

In his later ministry roles, Roger Haenke continued to offer steady leadership to congregations in the San Diego area. He worked with teams, guided transitions, and focused on inclusion, listening, and shared responsibility. His approach was thoughtful, balanced, and always grounded in care for others.

Now, Roger Haenke is entering a new chapter. He is no longer working in formal institutional roles, but he continues to serve the San Diego community in smaller, more flexible ways. Whether volunteering, mentoring, or simply showing up when needed, Roger Haenke remains committed to steady, meaningful work rooted in the same values he has carried all along.

For Roger Haenke, leadership has never been about attention or titles. It has always been about being present when it counts.

• Tabber Benedict of New York urges founders, investors, and business owners to adopt clearer communication practices to reduce risk and improve decision-making.

New York, US, 30th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Tabber B. Benedict, Founder and Managing Partner of Benedict Advisors PLLC, today announced a public push to raise awareness around a growing but often overlooked issue in the lower middle market: the lack of clear, accessible contract communication for entrepreneurs and business operators. Benedict is calling on companies to adopt plain-language summaries alongside traditional agreements to help leaders make faster, smarter, and more confident decisions.

“I’ve worked on major transactions for more than 25 years, and the number one problem I still see is that people don’t struggle with the clauses — they struggle with the implications,” Benedict said. “We can fix that by making legal and financial information clearer from the start.”

Research shows that 65% of small and mid-sized business owners do not fully understand at least one major contract they’ve signed, according to a 2023 SMB Market Report. Meanwhile, poor comprehension of long-term obligations accounts for an estimated $1.2 billion in preventable losses each year among lower middle-market companies. Benedict believes the solution isn’t more complexity — it’s clarity.

Why This Matters

Benedict’s call for action stems from decades of negotiating complex deals and guiding companies through high-stakes decisions. He noted that entrepreneurs frequently face institutional-level obligations without institutional-level support.

“Many founders can’t justify a full-time general counsel, yet they’re asked to sign documents with million-dollar consequences,” Benedict explained. “Clear communication shouldn’t be a luxury service. It should be a basic standard.”

He argues that the rise of fractional executive support shows a pressing need for better, more digestible information flow across legal, financial, and operational teams.

“We live in a market where speed matters, but speed without understanding is dangerous,” he said. “Plain-language summaries bridge that gap. They give people true decision-making power.”

What People Can Do Today

Benedict emphasized that individuals and business owners can take action immediately — without hiring a law firm or investing in new software.

He recommends three simple steps:

1. Ask for a plain-language explanation of every major obligation before signing.
   “If you don’t know what a clause means in real life, ask until you do. That’s not aggressive — it’s responsible,” he said.

2. Use handwritten notes to clarify key points.
   “Writing slows your thinking just enough to make it sharper,” Benedict noted. “I’ve done this for decades. I still do it today.”

3. Pause when needed.
   “The best deal is sometimes the one you walk away from,” he added. “Clarity gives you the confidence to make that choice when necessary.”

A Call for Cultural Change

Benedict is encouraging leaders — especially in the lower middle market — to adopt a new cultural mindset: clarity before complexity.

“When people understand what they’re agreeing to, negotiations become more honest, businesses become sturdier, and relationships last longer,” he said. “This is not about simplifying the work. It’s about strengthening the outcome.”

He also believes that increased transparency can reduce conflict and litigation, improve investor-founder alignment, and help companies grow with fewer preventable setbacks.

“Information is power, but only if you can understand it,” he said. “This is one of the simplest changes we can make, and the impact is enormous.”

Call to Action

Benedict urges founders, operators, investors, and advisors to begin implementing plain-language practices immediately — not through large structural overhauls, but through small daily decisions.

“You don’t need a new system or a new department,” Benedict said. “Just start asking for clarity, writing things down, and taking the time to fully understand your commitments. Those small steps change everything.”

Nashville, TN, 30th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, After one of the most devastating winter events in decades blanketed Middle Tennessee with ice, sleet, and freezing rain, local Church of Scientology Volunteer Ministers have mobilized alongside community partners to serve those most affected by the storm. The catastrophic weather led to massive power outages, downed power lines, and unprecedented strain on infrastructure throughout the city.

The ice storm, described by officials as the “most significant since 1994,” caused widespread destruction across Nashville and the surrounding area. At its peak, the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency reported over 315,000 outages statewide, with nearly 230,000 Nashville Electric Service (NES) customers without power due to icy tree limbs and fallen lines. 5 days later, approximately 90,000 customers remain without electricity, and crews are continuing to restore service under challenging conditions.

In response to these widespread outages and the extreme cold that followed, the American Red Cross has worked with local officials to open and staff emergency shelters and warming centers throughout the region. These shelters have provided vital refuge for residents without heat or power and have been stocked with blankets, meals, and essential supplies to help families stay safe during frigid overnight temperatures.

When city and relief organizations called for additional support, Church of Scientology Volunteer Ministers and the Church’s Disaster Response Team answered the call with compassion and dedication. These trained volunteers have been assisting by:

• Welcoming residents with a listening ear and a warm presence
• Helping distribute food, blankets, and hygiene supplies
• Supporting operational needs at shelters to ensure guests feel safe and cared for

“We are honored to stand with our neighbors in their time of need,” said a Volunteer Minister coordinator. “When crisis strikes, our mission is to bring practical help and heartfelt hope to every person we can.”

Working in coordination with the Red Cross, city officials, and local emergency teams, the Volunteer Ministers have helped extend the reach of relief efforts and uplift spirits at a challenging moment for many Nashvillians.

About the Volunteer Ministers
The Church of Scientology Volunteer Ministers is a nonprofit disaster response and community service organization dedicated to helping people prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural and man-made crises. Volunteer Ministers bring practical assistance and human compassion to communities affected by emergencies.
