If you actually measure the amount of time you spend scrolling through algorithm-led social media feeds each day, it will probably add up to more hours and minutes than you’d guess. Time can quickly slip away while you're checking up on friends, celebrities, the news, and the viral memes of the day.

Stripe’s former growth lead helps African diaspora invest in startups, real estate

techcrunch.com Tage Kene-Okafor 2025-09-09 09:30:00

Eighteen months later, Stripe acquired the company, and that equity converted into Stripe shares, enough to let Kinvi leave his job, bootstrap a side project, and eventually found a startup. That startup, Borderless, is now helping Africans in the diaspora collectively invest in startups and real estate back home. Since lau

Ahead of the release of Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the accompanying food tie-in blitz unleashes a first look at the movie’s take on Giganto in a Little Caesars pizza ad.
