Funding major step towards the expansion of its ecosystem 

Apron Network will use the funding capital to solidify its position as one of the Polkadot ecosystem’s top platforms. The blockchain platform has also assembled a team of enthusiasts and experts towards ensuring the long-term success of the network. 

The team behind Apron believes that the current infrastructure of the Polkadot ecosystem and cross-chain application is not entirely perfect. The decentralized network platform aims to build a decentralized platform that will suit the ecosystem’s most urgent needs. This will be expanded in the future to onboard new service providers into the Polkadot network. 

With the funding completed, Apron Network will focus on preparations for the upcoming Kusama slot auction and platform launch. There are also plans to deliver the web3 open grants milestones in the coming days. 

Apron has also continued technical improvements launching one of its POC version services for Heco testnet developers. The rest of the infrastructure service will be gradually launched within Q1 2021. 

Apron is also working within the roadmap, with the testnet expected to launch as scheduled in Q2 2021 (April). Once launched, all the essential utilities will be made available for developers to build interoperable applications within the Ethereum and Polkadot ecosystem for free. 

Apron will continue to develop new products and release its Apron Beta Network in Q3. These developments will culminate in the launch of the Apron mainnet in Q4, encompassing the network’s full utilities to operate correctly. Following the launch of the mainnet, Apron will continue to provide technical support towards building seamless infrastructure services on other public chains and continuous improvement of its network. 

To create a holistic approach within its ecosystem, Apron will be exploring partnerships, community activity, and brand awareness. As part of this activity, Apron will host a series of campaigns and events to engage with members, facilitating interactions and participation among our users and interested participants.

Brandon Gilkey Advocates for Youth Mentorship and Financial Education Amid Growing Economic Uncertainty

Published

on

  • Real Estate Leader Highlights the Power of Guidance, Adaptability, and Long-Term Thinking for the Next Generation

Arizona, US, 11th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, As economic uncertainty, rising housing costs, and limited financial education continue to challenge young Americans, real estate entrepreneur Brandon Gilkey is using his voice to advocate for increased youth mentorship and practical financial literacy—especially for students navigating life beyond athletics and traditional career paths.

Gilkey, who transitioned from a sports-driven upbringing in Edmond, Oklahoma, to building over $8 million in real estate holdings, credits mentorship, adaptability, and long-term thinking as the foundation of his success.

“Growing up in sports taught me teamwork, dedication, and resilience,” Gilkey says. “But stepping away from the path I thought I was supposed to take forced me to grow in ways I never expected.”

A Timely Issue Backed by Data

According to recent national studies:

  • Over 60% of young adults report feeling unprepared to make major financial decisions

  • Nearly 70% of high school students receive no formal financial education

  • First-time homebuyer ages have climbed to record highs, largely due to lack of financial preparedness and rising costs

Gilkey believes mentorship can bridge that gap.

“Working with students showed me how powerful guidance can be,” he explains. “When young people have someone helping them see beyond what’s in front of them, it changes their trajectory.”

From Mentorship to Market Success

After graduating from Abilene Christian University in 2003, Gilkey spent years mentoring students through church-based programs before relocating to Phoenix with his wife. That move marked a turning point—one that led him into real estate, where he found a way to combine strategy, service, and long-term impact.

“Real estate isn’t just about transactions,” Gilkey says. “It’s about helping people build stability, confidence, and a future they can believe in.”

His success underscores a broader message: skills learned through discipline, mentorship, and service are transferable—and powerful—across industries.

Empowering the Next Generation Starts at Home

Rather than calling for policy changes alone, Gilkey emphasizes individual action—parents, mentors, coaches, and professionals taking responsibility to guide young people where systems fall short.

“You don’t need to be an expert to make a difference,” he says. “You just need to be willing to share your experience, listen, and help someone think long-term.”

What Individuals Can Do Now

  • Start conversations with young people about money, careers, and long-term planning

  • Encourage exploration beyond one-dimensional career paths

  • Support mentorship programs in schools, churches, and local communities

  • Share real-world lessons—not just success stories, but challenges too

“When we invest time in people early,” Gilkey adds, “we don’t just change individual lives—we strengthen entire communities.”

As economic pressures continue to rise, voices like Brandon Gilkey’s highlight a powerful truth: mentorship and education remain some of the most effective tools for long-term success—both financially and personally.

Vickie DeHart Shares a Practical Message for Busy, Overloaded Days

Published

on

  • Vickie DeHart of Las Vegas writes to everyday people navigating pressure, overload, and unclear days.

Las Vegas, NV, 11th February 2026, ZEXPRWIREThis letter is for people who feel busy but not always effective.
For those juggling work, responsibilities, and expectations while trying to keep things moving forward.

I’ve spent decades in construction and real estate, industries where unclear days turn into costly problems. Over time, I’ve learned that most stress doesn’t come from the size of the work. It comes from a lack of clarity.

“As I’ve learned, structure gives you freedom,” I often say. When days start without direction, everything feels heavier.

Construction taught me that quickly. “There’s no hiding in this industry,” I’ve said before. “Either it works or it doesn’t.” The same is true in daily life. When communication is unclear or tasks stay unfinished, pressure builds fast.

Research backs this up.

  • Nearly 70% of workplace errors are tied to miscommunication or unclear expectations.

  • Writing down daily priorities increases task completion by over 30%.

  • Short daily walks can improve creative problem-solving by up to 60%.

  • People who reflect daily report 20–25% lower stress levels.

But this isn’t about productivity hacks. It’s about living with less friction.

“One of the biggest lessons I learned early on,” I’ve shared, “is that most problems aren’t caused by lack of effort. They’re caused by unclear expectations.” When expectations stay vague, even capable people feel stuck.

I also believe something many people don’t agree with. “Mistakes are underrated,” I’ve said. They’re not the issue. Ignoring them is. Progress comes from noticing what isn’t working and adjusting calmly.

Another lesson that still guides me: “You learn more by walking a site than reading ten reports.” Being present—physically and mentally—changes how problems appear. Distance often makes things feel bigger than they are.

And finally, this one matters most: “I don’t believe in pressure-led leadership. I believe in clarity.” Pressure creates urgency. Clarity creates momentum.

What You Can Do This Week

You don’t need new tools or a major life change. Try one or two of these.

  1. Write down three priorities each morning. No more.

  2. Take a 10-minute walk without your phone. Think through one open issue.

  3. Finish one small task you’ve been carrying for days.

  4. Clarify expectations in one conversation instead of assuming.

  5. Remove one unnecessary step from a routine process.

  6. Have one distraction-free conversation.

  7. End one day by noting what actually worked.

  8. Ask, “What’s unclear here?” before reacting.

  9. Step outside when you feel overwhelmed.

  10. Choose progress over perfection—just for today.

None of these are dramatic. That’s the point.

“Big ideas only work if they’re grounded in execution,” I’ve said before. And execution begins with small, repeatable habits that make life easier, not louder.

A Simple Invitation

Choose one action from this list.
Commit to it for 7 days.
Notice what feels lighter.

If this letter helped you, share it with someone who feels overwhelmed, busy, or stuck. Sometimes clarity spreads simply by passing it on.
