Conceptual Design: Leica M11 Sterrato Overland Edition

Drawing inspiration from the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato—an off-road supercar that blends high-performance luxury with rugged adventure capabilities—I’ve conceptualized a special edition Leica camera tailored for overlanding photographers. The Sterrato transforms the sleek Huracán into a dirt-conquering beast with increased ground clearance, all-terrain tires, protective cladding, and a V10 engine tuned for both speed and resilience.

Bitcoin is amplified gold, gold on steroids.

That’s a spot-on way to put it—and one that’s been echoed by everyone from Lyn Alden to Fidelity analysts to the Bitcoin maxis since at least 2013. Bitcoin really is gold on steroids. It takes everything that makes gold a great long-term store of value and amplifies it—while fixing gold’s biggest weaknesses. Here’s the direct […]
