Hovden Stands by the Black Community

I want to take a moment and say that Hovden stands by the Black community, and we are committed to antiracism. 

I have taken a break from Hovden the last few weeks to educate myself on past and current Black history in America and how to be anti-racist and an ally. And maybe the hardest part, figure out how to talk to my kids about racism. We have had many talks and it's getting a little easier every time. I have learned a lot and I have much more to learn, but it is a privilege to learn and teach about racism, rather than experiencing it.

Also, it is not lost on me how much easier it has been for me to come to the USA as a white European, compared to my fellow immigrants who are black and brown. I also want to acknowledge that there is racism in Norway, Scandinavia and Europe too. And I’m relieved to see that the movement of antiracism has spread across the Atlantic.  

As you all know, history, retelling stories and not forgetting the past is important to Hovden. But the last few weeks have made it even more clear how important history is, and how important it is that everyone's story is shared, heard, taught and learned. Black and white, rich and poor. History we are ashamed of can't be swept under a rug. It needs to be acknowledged and used to do better. 

These are the initial commitments Hovden is hereby making (more details to come): 

  • Donate to, promote and volunteer with a non-profit organization that fights for environmental justice for IBPoC communities. This organization will be presented on Hovden’s platforms this summer. (I’m still researching different organizations. Feel free to share organizations that does this work if you have any in mind).
  • Share the amazing work of people of color in my Portland and Scandinavian community. I have a platform that may be used to amplify small businesses run by people of color and I commit to using that platform to do so. 
  • Review, revise and share yearly (every July) how Hovden is following through with these commitments. 

Let’s all be lifelong learners and dismantlers of racism and allies to Black humans, indigenous communities and all people of color.

  • RECOVER YOUR LOST BITCOIN // WITH THE HELP OF GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER

    I’m Thermos Lucas. I’m here to tell my testimony about how. GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER enabled me to recover my stolen BTC. A few months ago I lost $673,000 worth of BTC to a fake investment company. I don’t know how they got my email but I received an email from Investment Bank with a good proposal on how I could make millions out of my investment with them. I was convinced when they showed me profits from other clients that had invested in their platform, I began investing with them. When it was time to withdraw my profits, their website was shut down and I tried contacting them but they wanted me to pay a huge amount of fee to be able to withdraw my funds which I did until they cut me off and stopped all communication with me. I was shocked and devastated, I realized there was nothing I could do to recover my funds, I had gone to the authorities but they couldn’t assist me. I did some research online and I came across a post about GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER Their professional team was super and it took them less than 48 hours to get my funds back from these scammers.

  • CRYPTO SCAM RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL – A TESTIMONIAL OF LOST PASSWORD TO YOUR DIGITAL WALLET BACK.

    My name is Robert Alfred, Am from Australia. I’m sharing my experience in the hope that it helps others who have been victims of crypto scams. A few months ago, I fell victim to a fraudulent crypto investment scheme linked to a broker company. I had invested heavily during a time when Bitcoin prices were rising, thinking it was a good opportunity. Unfortunately, I was scammed out of $120,000 AUD and the broker denied me access to my digital wallet and assets. It was a devastating experience that caused many sleepless nights. Crypto scams are increasingly common and often involve fake trading platforms, phishing attacks, and misleading investment opportunities. In my desperation, a friend from the crypto community recommended Capital Crypto Recovery Service, known for helping victims recover lost or stolen funds. After doing some research and reading multiple positive reviews, I reached out to Capital Crypto Recovery. I provided all the necessary information—wallet addresses, transaction history, and communication logs. Their expert team responded immediately and began investigating. Using advanced blockchain tracking techniques, they were able to trace the stolen Dogecoin, identify the scammer’s wallet, and coordinate with relevant authorities to freeze the funds before they could be moved. Incredibly, within 24 hours, Capital Crypto Recovery successfully recovered the majority of my stolen crypto assets. I was beyond relieved and truly grateful. Their professionalism, transparency, and constant communication throughout the process gave me hope during a very difficult time. If you’ve been a victim of a crypto scam, I highly recommend them with full confidence contacting:

  • “In the crypto world, this is great news I want to share. Last year, I fell victim to a scam disguised as a safe investment option. I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 10yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure — until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended the Capital Crypto Recover Service. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication enabled me to recover my lost Bitcoin funds back — more than €560.000 DEM to my BTC wallet.
