Rarely does a new hotel’s name—especially one that’s not followed by that of a hospitality group such as Aman or Rosewood Hotels & Resorts—present potential guests with a clear sense of place. Such is not the case, however, for Somewhere Else, Pharrell Williams and Miami Beach–based hospitality entrepreneur David Grutman’s newest collaborative project on the Bahamas’s Paradise Island.

My message today is going to be supportive of investing in Dogecoin (CCC:DOGE-USD). But I will do my best to convince the skeptics out there that it’s no joke.
