Why This $600M Startup Scandal Makes the Case for Co-ops This week, Bloomberg uncovered that Indonesian aquaculture unicorn eFishery had been faking revenue for years—$600 million of it.

A $600M startup scandal and a reason to build differently.
Build with transparency, shared governance, and cooperative accountability at the core.
Let’s not keep repeating the same mistakes.

This isn’t just about Big Tech. It’s about power, data, and who controls our digital lives.
Platforms should be owned by people, not billionaires.

Farm crisis shapes Iowa producers who grew up in the 1980s According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s census data, Iowa has lost nearly 10,000 farms, marking a 10.1 percent decrease, down to 86,911 farms in 2022, from 96,705 in 1997.

This article hit hard.
The farm crisis of the 1980s shaped a generation of producers, and still echoes today.
At The Stewardry, we’re building systems to end that cycle.
We don’t need another collapse. We need care.

Solar manufacturing is scaling in Texas.

What does that mean for decentralized energy, local co-op grids, and regenerative infrastructure?

We’re watching this closely at The Stewardry.
